Not quite a stout but definitely no lightweight, Cutthroat is smooth and robust. Inspired by the classic London porters, we use dark roasted malts to create a deep, rich color and flavor that hint at chocolate and coffee. We named it Cutthroat as our tribute to the Colorado state fish – with its own rich heritage and unmistakable dark coloring. And while we’re big fans of small batches, here’s to the currently threatened Cutthroat population reaching mass quantities.

4/5  rDev -1.7%
look: 4 | smell: 4 | taste: 4 | feel: 4 | overall: 4
Look - Very dark black, unable to see through it against the light. Not much foam with this one, but may have been my pour.

Smell - Sweet smelling, like molasses and/or licorice. Maybe also a hint of a coffee flavor.

Taste - Dark, roasted taste of coffee beans and molasses. I can taste a little bit of the chocolate that they mention on the label, but not terribly prevalent to me. Not a terribly strong or lingering aftertaste either.

Mouthfeel - Surprisingly lighter in texture. Not watery though, good balance.

Drinkability - I would say that this is quite drinkable all around. Not too strong, good complexity, and not too filling or lingering. Easy to come back to several times.

12 oz bottle poured into a pint glass.

L - Pours a dark cola black with a tinge of redness. About a finger of cocoa/off white head that dissipates quick and leaves a generous lacing.

S - Cocoa, coffee, roasted malt, dark chocolate, soy sauce, caramel, slightly smoky.

T - Follows the nose with dark chocolate, coffee, cherry, slightly bitter but more on the sweeter chocolatey end.

F - Light bodied, light/moderate carbonation, smooth and creamy yet finishes more on the thin watery side. Makes this very drinkable but other characteristics make this very sippable.

O - A nice offering from this brewery. A porter more on the sweeter end but enough bitter coffee/semi-sweet chocolate qualities to balance it out.
