I spotted this bottle at an upscale liquor store in Colorado Springs, a White Pony beer? A no-brainer to purchase. The label shows a lot n. of 02/2015, gotta say. I have my New Belgium globe glass arrayed to catch the pour. Dark, very dark, black with perhaps some brown around the edges. The smallish head withers to a ring of small, light tan bubbles. The scent is chocolate with some hops lurking. The drink is all right, not quite what I hoped. Chocolate definitely, grain, licorice,malt, a touch of raspberry jam. The feel is really thin, for an imperial porter I thought there would be some presence. Oh well.

Pours dark, unclear brown. Small white head. Scent is sharp, chocolate strawberry - but not as sweet as expected. Taste is sharp, sweet, exhaustingly intense on the strawberry. Bit cocoa. Sugary. Decent, but hard to drink .

Pours black, medium large, off-white head. Scent is mild, roasty malts, bit sharp. Taste is full, vanilla, roasty, sweet. Dark sugar. Smooth body. medium low carbo. Bit sharp finish - not metallic, but a strange feature i'd place in that area of impressions.
