This award-winning dark ale is surprisingly smooth and drinkable. Caramel, molasses and chocolate flavors fill the palate. Its sweet start is perfectly balanced by a roasted dry finish. Nitrogen-conditioned.

Pours a dark brown color with a foamy tan head that lasts quite a while. Aroma of roasted malts. Taste is black coffee and roasted malts. Smooth and creamy.

Appearance: On tap at Daytona Beach location. 98% super dark brown if not black. Thick tan head that stuck around forever.

Aroma: Strong. Roasted malts and coffee.

Taste: Roasted malt, coffee, bitter chocolate, a bit of raisin.

Feel: Soft, pillowy, creamy (nitro).

Overall: Great nitro coffee porter for a restaurant chain brewer.

On tap at the Colorado Springs' BJ's...

Excellent appearance; thick, creamy head. Great dark roasted grain smell. Rich and robust flavor. Fine, smooth mouthfeel.

Well-made, balanced, and tasty.

Pours a dark brown, almost black, with no head to it. Smells rich of molasses, dark fruit, coffee & chocolate. The taste is more roasted malts than anything else, has a slight dark fruit flavor, has a not so pleasant burnt coffee aftertaste. Mouthfeel is thin, flat & watery. Don't know if it's due to improper beer conditioning from the tap house or not, but this brew did not impress.

Dark, moderate foam head,, the nitro effect from the tap at BJ's makes a difference. Bold chocolate taste, goes down easy with a mild after taste. I always drink the first one too fast and need a second.
