Named after one of our favorite ski runs at Monarch Mountain, Little Mo’ oozes aromas of chocolate, coffee and light floral hops. The palate hits with chocolate and coffee notes, balanced with a subtle bitterness. With a medium mouthfeel, the lingering sweetness from this malt forward beer will have you asking for just a Little Mo’!

12 oz can canned 11/25/25 into a Becher glass.
L: Pours very dark brown to black color with a 1/2" domed dark beige head, medium low carbo, head slowly recedes to edge froth, half-glass light complex lacing.
S: Roasted grains, char, light cocoa, a hint of dark fruits.
T: Gently bitter charred grains, light cocoa, dark fruits, prunes, burnt bread crust, coffee char, aftertaste is charred malts.
F: A light zip then wet, medium bodied mouthfeel with a fairly fast moving lightly dry finish.
O: The taste of char is really all this beer has that is high-level. I like it. It's not too bitter and also not acrid or too dry. Pretty simple with an excellent aftertaste. It is very good.

The pour is breakfast blend coffee brown and looks much like coffee with a very short tan head in the glass.
The taste is both mild and deep; lots of stuff going on. Chocolate and coffee are the primary movers and shakers, the supporting cast is a melange of dark fruit and floral hops, a little caramel and and bready malts.
The feel is surprisingly thin for the amount of flavor in there, but on the bright side it is very easy to drink quickly. So you can have another.
OA, I might prefer a robust porter over this, but if you like an easy drinking and smooth porter, give this one a try.

I got a can of this beer from my bestie from Charlotte, NC whom got it from a beer of the month club mixed pack. It poured an opaque dark with khaki head that is leaving some lace. The scent had subtle chocolate and roast notes. The taste was nicely balanced and easy to drink with semi sweet dark chocolate malt base with vanilla and roast presence. The mouthfeel was lighter in body with good carbonation. Overall it is a solid beer.

Pours a dark mahogany brown and settles as almost black in the glass with a creamy light tan head that coats the glass.
Chocolate and roasty chocolate notes are featured on the nose, and translate directly to the taste, with a smidge of floral hops as well.
The mouthfeel is medium, but could be a bit more substantial. Still, this is a porter that’s a pleasure to drink.

The beer is a black color with a small beige head and a little bit of lace.
Roasted malt aroma, some chocolate and a little coffee.
Taste follows the nose, mostly chocolate, a little coffee, some char.
Medium-bodied, enjoyable beer.

12 oz can. Rich dark color with considerable body and obvious dark grain bitterness that hints of coffee. Thick head that was still visible during the lasts sips. Definitely brewed in the style of a traditional Porter.

12oz canned 5-4-20, opened 6-20-20.
1 finger beige colored head, good retention at a solid cap.
Black middle to dark brown edges on this porter. Spotty lacing.
Smells almost like a fruitcake, chocolate, dark fruit, spice. Nice aroma right off the bat.
Doughy malt. Perception of mild coffee. Grassy hops at the end.
Light coffee and roasted malts. Mild bitterness. Hint of dark fruit.
Medium body, moderate carbonation with a soft, creamy mouthfeel.
Lightly roasty with an off-dry medium length finish. Drinkability is high.
Very Good. Impressed.
