Pours dark amber brown into into a pint glass, aggressive puffy and smooth tan head that isn't going anywhere fast.
Nose of milk/dark chocolate and some roasted malts.
Taste of chocolate, sweet grains, and some roastiness with a light hop bite on the back end. Relatively mild carbonation and thinner, smooth mouthfeel ends cleanly.
'Gansett ranks pretty low on my brewery scale, but this is one of their best. No nonsense, mightily drinkable porter. $7 for a six of local tall boys? Sold.

On tap at The Lionheart Pub in Albany, NY.
This one pours a very dark brown color, with a small white head, and lots of lacing.
This smells like toasted bread, chocolate, and roasted malt.
This is fairly basic and straightforward, but ultimately brewed well with no obvious flaws. It’s got a crisp slightly bitter hop bite on the end, melding with the pleasant roastiness and a touch of chocolatey malt. There’s a really nice toasty malt character as well.
This is medium bodied, crisp, and super drinkable.
I love seeing a successful no frills porter from a brewery like this.
