The bartender described this as a hazelnut porter with coffee and chocolate added in.

A: This beer looks amazing, with a black-velvet body and a creamy mocha colored head. It has excellent texture and retention.

S: The nose is very vibrant, with generous doses of coffee, chocolate, and caramel. It almost reminds me of tiramisu.

T: This brew is perfectly balanced between the sweet and the bitter. Chocolate, Frangelico, and caramel are perfectly offset by bitter roasted malt, coffee, and a touch of hops. This is quite enjoyable.

M: The texture of this beer enhances its richness, with a creamy velvet feel.

O: Definitely a must try, especially for dessert.

This is a keeper. Keep this one in stock.

I concur from the Founders website:

Pours silky black with a creamy tan head. The nose is sweet with strong chocolate and caramel malt presence. No absence of hops gives Founders’ robust porter the full flavor you deserve and expect. Cozy like velvet. It’s a lover, not a fighter.
