Poured from 16oz can into pint glass in October 2025, that I purchased at their brewery in Tewksbury, MA. There is a stamp "We Roast It, You Toast It 2025" on the bottom of the can, and I drank this about 1 week after I purchased it.
Appearance: Very dark black with almost no head. The head was dark brown, and disappeared after a minute. It left only a little lacing on the glass, and no head remained after a minute.
Smell: Strong mix of aromas filled the room as soon as the can was opened. Roasted coffee, caramel, and chocolate aromas. Not much hop style citrus or pine aromas.
Taste: There is taste of coffee, vanilla, and licorice. Also, some chocolate and roasted malt flavors. Flavors are very bold, and dominated by the coffee. There is a strong alcohol presence that matches 7.4% advertised. A strong coffee aftertaste, that is enjoyable.
Mouth-feel: Very thick, but with an extremely smooth and creamy body.
This is a good Porter. It has a variety of flavors that adds a nice complexity to the beer. The flavors of coffee and roasted malt dominate. It is very smooth and enjoyable to drink. I have enjoyed all the beers I've bought at Tree House, and I would buy this again, but i prefer the standard Catharsis.
