A - Poured the bomber into a nonic pint glass. Dark brown with highlights at the edges. Small tan head, fades quickly, leaves a slight cap and little lacing.
S - Light coffee up front, some roasted malts backing it up. I like the subtle use of the coffee.
T - More light coffee on the tongue, light roasted malts again, some hints at vanilla, then it all ends with some fruity esters. Hardly any bitterness from the coffee. This is a very light, subtle porter. A nice change of pace from the heavy imperial, strong coffee porters.
M - Medium body, medium carb for the style. Coats the palate and lingers.
O - This is a very nice, easy to drink porter. I'm surprised it is even at 6% ABV. I would've guessed much lighter. I took a chance because I hadn't heard anything about Berkley, and I was not disappointed. Worth giving it a shot.

ACBF pour. Poured brown. Smell is of genuine coffee. Reminds me of cold brewed Java. It's not intense but it's pleasant. Flavor is also good but mellow. Coffee dominates along with some caramel. Light bodied. Would like more robust qualities.

This porter is pretty good, and I like coffee beers, but I think it needs to be more well balanced. I feel like the coffee and the porter are competing and the coffee is winning.
