Draft at BWI. Dark brown, small beige head. Aroma of coffee grounds and caramel. Tastes like a dilute Starbucks coffee soda, if there is such a thing.

beer of summer @ OTH. copper, off-white head. aroma, malty, caramel, fruity with sugary nose; dates and caramelized apple. flavors, sweet fruity, caramel malts, definite warming abv, brown sugar, sadly this one is just a little too high on abv that at times overtakes most of the other aspects of this beer. Finish on caramel notes, some sweetness and lingering fruits.

beer of summer @ OTH. copper color, tan head. aroma and flavors, solid barley wine, lots of nice caramel malts, brown sugar, light bitterness in the finish, warming abv, bready mouthfeel, dark fruits. Slow sipper, and nicely done, hops are there though not overpowering, leaving plenty of room for the malt, sugar and fruits to develop.

22oz bottle pours a transparent copper amber with a little white head. Smells sweet, malty, bready, yeast, alcohol, ripe fruits. Flavor is very sweet, caramel, hardly any bitterness, a little butterscotch. Full bodied, sweet finish. WAY too sweet and totally one note.

Draft at BWI. Black with tan head. Aroma of milk chocolate. Taste is Hershey bar with a slight bitter edge. More of a stout than a porter, but tasty anyway.
