Complex malty aromas of dark chocolate, honey, ripe figs, coffee, with a hint of smokiness. Smooth and silky.

After reading over the other review, I'm wondering if we tried the same beer. The version I had at the brewpub today was simple, thin on the palate, and completely forgettable (which unfortunately, is how I would describe most beers that Plank Town makes). Both on the nose and the palate, there was considerable roasty malt, burnt toast and coffee. There was a hint of smoke as well I guess, and the finish was dry and lightly bitter.

There are a lot well made porters available in the NW, but unfortunately, this isn't one of them.

Draft at Orenco Taphouse. Outstanding....but this should be listed as a *smoked porter*. Black as a moonless night...not much head but that is a very minor complaint. . Smooth, roasty, very peaty without being overbearing or acrid at all. Feels full bodied but lower abv and good balance make multiple pints possible without palate fatigue. Strongly recommended and a potential flagship for a new-ish brewery.
