Had on tap at Hingham location--described as an imperial porter
Appearance: black in color, 1/4 inch head, opaque, low carbonation
Smell: dark chocolate and roasted coffee
Taste: dark chocolate, coffee, roasted malt, and light vanilla at the end
Mouthfeel: medium-heavy bodied, low carbonation, sweet and roasty
Overall: An above average rich and heavy porter. The imperial aspect adds a bit of creaminess to this. Good quality beer, but it does taste like several others I have had in the style.
