Sweet a bit toasted porter. Very much the style though on the sweet side. Above average mouthfeel. Soso drinkability.

1 PINT, 6 FL. OZ. bottle
Served in a snifter
This beer pours black and is topped with an inch of mocha head that leaves little lacing.
I get sweet toffee and chocolate notes. I swear I get a fruit element as well.
The taste is sweet with caramel and toffee flavors. Some dark chocolate and roasted malt flavors come through the middle with a black coffee finish.
Medium mouthfeel
It is a sweet beer, but the finish kind of brings it back. I like it. It is a dessert beer.

Could be considered a little sweet, but another pretty good one in this line from these guys. The hops are nicely subued now.

Half a finger of head from an aggressive pour, with moderate carbonation. With toffee, vanilla, and peanut brittle on the nose and tongue, this is well executed for its name. Quite nice and smooth, not too sweet to enjoy at any time, as opposed to clearly being a dessert beer.

Pours deep dark brown and black in the glass with a thin layer of light khaki foam.
Buttery notes, caramel, vanilla, toffee, earthy hop resins, and dark chocolate.
Toffee, caramel, dark chocolate, subtle citrus, and huge piney/earthy hop aroma.
Heavy-bodied, light carbonation, sweet, creamy, bitter hop finish.
Overall, while this comes off sweet and sticky, this finishes with a hoppy bitter palate cleansing.

Very smooth medium flavored Porter. Tasted more caramel with vanilla notes to me. It is one of the better porters from Spiteful in my opinion. Definitely better as it warms. Nice offering.
