Maximum Mocha Porter
Neshaminy Creek Brewing Company

Pours dark brown but not opaque with a nice creamy head which slowly subsides. Huge aroma and flavor of coffee, slightly bitter, with sweet undertones of milk chocolate.

On tap at Applebee’s in Dover. Pours a jet black ebony hue with maximum frothing. Assertive aroma replete with hints of cocoa and chocolate. Similar overall flavor profile.

Look- very dark brown liquid with a tan head and spotty lacing

Smell- predominantly strong espresso with a little chocolate and vanilla-like sweetness

Taste- not as sweet as the nose would indicate. Getting strong coffee and semi-sweet chocolate but that quickly gives way to a pleasant roasty bitterness. Very nicely balanced

Feel- medium-light bodied with moderate carbonation; lingering sweetness and bitterness in the finish

Overall- outstanding coffee porter that's nicely balanced between sweetness and bitterness

 

 

A - Dark brown pour with some opacity and creamy caramel colored lacing.

S - Strong coffee bean aroma with some char, dark chocolate roast, and a hint of creme.

T - Coffee beans, some light char/charcoal, some roasty chocolate, creme, and a lingering dark roast presence settles on the palate.

M - Medium body that's a little thin on the back end.

O - Alot of flavor packed into 6%.

The beer menu says tastes like cocoa and roasted malts. This pour (on tap Funck's Leola) is pure mocha tasting. Not a bad thing, in fact exactly what I was looking for. Now if they could amp up the cocoa, I'd declare it perfect. Smell is pure coffee. Color is practically black. Would certainly order again.
