A- Pours a black color with red highlights when held up to the light. A light brown head that turns into a few little bubbles and leaves hardly any lacing.

S- Lighter than I expected but I can pick up roasted malts and some chocolate. Picking up coffee, but not a huge coffee bomb like I was expecting.

T- Lightly roasted coffee, dark chocolate, and roasted malts. Not a whole lot different than the Silk Porter.

M- Lighter side of medium in body and very smooth. Light on the carbonation.

O- Not bad by any means. I was having a hard time telling the difference between both Porters, but worth a shot for sure.

From Zombier. In Teku glass. Playing Bloo Kid 2, then watching Vikings 5x08. Just what its name suggest. Silky, smooth, with plenty tasty roasted coffee (and vanilla) and low in alcohol (but full in flavors and feel)

Had on nitro at Hoppin' Frog. Certainly recommend. It was a starbucks Cold brew with a sweet smooth texture. Amazing. Rich and creamy with mocha hints.

22oz bottle poured into a small tumbler/wine style glass. Very dark color, almost black with a creamy off white head which was small and did not linger too long on top. Coffee scent is heavy in the nose along with a slight nutty scent. Coffee beans is the main flavor with a light roasted malt aftertaste. The Coffee flavor dissipates as the beer warms and a slightly creamy and bitter chocolate flavor take over. Very drinkable beer that I personally preferred as it was cold more than as it warmed towards room temperature.
