Pours near black with a nice frothy mocha head which fades moderately slowly. Some fairly wet lacing remains while drinking. Aroma is mostly of chocolate & malt. Taste follows with some nice chocolate, coffee & nuttiness to go along with the sweet caramel/toffee malts. The body of the mouthfeel is full & smooth but the carbonation bites slightly, taking away somewhat overall. Each sip ends with a slight metallic hint which takes away from the taste overall, but still a pretty decent porter.

This was a random pick, and I think it might have been a random bottle, left over from who-knows-when. At least that was how it went over.
This thing pour beautifully, all black and foamy. The lacing continues to impress. The smell is a let down as it is just slightly roasty. Mocha? Maybe. The taste is similarly disappointingly bland. I wanted a bigger malty taste and it was just adequate. I found myself liking it more as I drank, and it would not offend if I had two to drink, but it might bore after that.
Not recommended. You can find a better porter without looking too hard.
