Super dark heavy blackness with a 1/2 of froth. Smell light toast coffee good roast and some hops. Taste is pretty good a bit green and herbal but has a good roast black coffee bite. Smooth drink ability has a bitter bite one doesn't get with most coffee beers.
Overall I could see the high reviews lighter than expected with deep coffee flavors and smooth. Worth trying!

Off tap. Nice dark color with light tan head that remains pretty well and laces the glass. Smells of coffee. Medium to lighter carbonation, which for me is perfect for this type beer. Very good flavour. Classic porter in one sense, but definitely strong coffee notes. And, as a nice twist, a little hoppier than a lot of porters I’ve had. But it works pretty well. Great beer all in all.

From a bottle, pours dark brown to black, good carbonation and head retention.
The smell is all coffee grounds, a little caramel and roasted malt, dark chocolate. The flavor is more coffee, bitter chocolate. It taste a little like filtered coffee grounds, but balances well with the roast and smoke. Finish is a little thin, but this is still very enjoyable.
Would definitely drink this again.
