Keg at the Beer Mongers, PDX, 09/11/14. Clear golden with a moderate off white covering. Nose is orange pith, juicy hop wash, straw, grapefruit. Taste comprises orange, light floral notes, not a huge amont of depth. Medium bodied, fine carbonation, semi drying close. Ok IPA.

Draft pour at the silver leaf. Pours a cola black with a huge foamy tan head. Mild coffee roast and malt aroma. With a name like snake bite, I expected it to have a bite too it but this beer is so smooth. A bit of a dessert beer. Sweet vanilla and chocolate flavors with a sweeter finish. Overall, a really tasty porter. Really enjoyed this. UPDATE - I still remember trying this at 6am in Redmond, OR over 4 years ago. Bold roast. Less of a hidden gem as I remember it from near the source, but still a solid porter.
