Cask at GBBF 2015. It pours dark brown with minimal head. The nose is toasty, earthy roast, mild acidity, dark fruits, fruit compote, light jam and light spice. The taste is smooth, toasty, earthy, leather, dark roast, caramel, sweet coffee, cocoa and pepper with a dry finish. Medium body and fine carbonation. Simple and drinkable porter. Not bad.

On tap at The American Craft Beer Fest Yesterday. Rich chocolatey sweet roasty porter, I’d drink the crap out of these if they were sold in NH.
