On tap at Manito. Pours hazy orange golden with a one finger white head with decent retention. Aroma is like beery orange juice. Taste has light bitterness. Kind of thin and watery. A little juicy. Not as impressive as the aroma.

Can from Brewer’s Haven, December 2021. Dark brown color with a frothy tan head. Big coffee aroma, roast and cocoa. A good coffee flavor, moderate bitterness and lightly sweet. Some cocoa, but not getting the vanilla. It’s a coffee drinker’s porter for sure.

16oz can pours out dark brown almost black topped with a tan head. Nose is big roast coffee notes and some light sweetness. Taste is more of the nice big roast malts coffee some ash and a little sweetness.

16oz can from Hops & Bottles. Hazy yellow/ golden, patchy head. Aroma is light, lemony, oranges. Taste adds some tropical fruity notes, pineapple, mango. Very subtle, gets dry toward as the finish.

Bottle from Tavour. Aroma is dominant peppercorn and moderate cacoa. Pours a deep brown with tan head. Foam flowed out of the bottle on opening Flavor is chocolate with the cinnamon showing. Overt lactose. Solid chewy yeast in the back support. A bit spritzy that seems to come from the lactose. A really nice and interesting beer.

Bottle from Tavour. Pours dark brown/black with a huge foamy white head. Not a Guinness pour, just a huge one. Aroma is cinnamon over chocolate. Med body; very smooth. Flavor is strongly cinnamon, with chocolate, toasted malt (mildly toasted) and some non-musty wood notes. Decent flavors. Not overdone. Some brown sugar comes out as the cinnamon dies down.

500ml bottle from Tavour. Dark brown pour, minimal head. Cinnamon is first in the aroma, sweet, brown sugar. Cinnamon leads the taste as well, more brown sugar, light roast malts, a warm cinnamon roll comes to mind. Barrel aging here seems to smooth out the malts. Love the flavors here, mellow, subtle. Really nicely done.

Can. Pours a hazy light orange gold with a white head that dissipates to the edges and laces slightly. Aroma has citrus and citrus rind with a bit of creamy sweet grains underlying. Flavor has dank citrus and light rind with a touch of papaya and sweet grains.

Can from Tavour. Pours clear brown with a dark, transient beige head. Aroma of coffee. Near med body. Flavor is decent, tho not over the top, coffee. Dryish. Maybe a hint of vanilla - something more than coffee. It's a struggle to find chocolate. Good, but not exciting.
