BillKismet (4650) - Seattle, Washington, USA - DEC 15, 2016Black body, with a firm cocoa head. Dry nose of cool black patent, sooty, a touch of dark unsweetened chocolate and coffee. Crisp. The body follows through, sooty black patent dominates, bitter black grains and very dry. Medium-bodied. Ash on the finish sticks to the back of the palate.
fiulijn (27110) - Vancouver, British Columbia, CANADA - DEC 5, 2016UPDATED: JAN 16, 2017 Draught at Elizabeth Station, Bellingham, WA
The color is near black. Dark malts dominate this beer, with biscuity, bready character; there is some chocolate, very light fruity esters; the final is rather dry, but overall it’s smooth and harmonious.
Very good.
andrewje41 (6568) - Monroe, Washington, USA - NOV 5, 2016Draft 6 oz pour at Holy Mountain. Cola black pour with a soap bubble head to it. A robust malt aroma. Flavor is toasty, but mild as an overall. A bitter reminder late. Interesting take on the porter. An imperial mild if i have a vote. Not bad, but not a flavor I crave.
HonusWagner (2248) - Florida, USA - AUG 24, 2016A really great roasty porter and one of the nicer things I tried here, a good break from the flood of hoppy/tart saisons.
