Reviewed from notes. The appearance was a semi-dark brown close to black color with a cap of a little off white foamy head that slid off at a fair pace, barely any lace.
The aroma had a nice roasty coffee bean tone up front with some cocoa powder and dark chocolate nibs. Delicate sweetness with a punchy little bit of bitterness. Light earthiness and a touch of dark fruits.
The flavor leaned into a blend of roast to sweetness and kept the dark fruits mostly at bay in this department. Delicate aftertaste of the cocoa powder and dark chocolate nibs.
The mouthfeel was about medium bodied with a fair sessionability about it. Carbonation felt fine. ABV felt good. Slight roasty sort of finish.
Overall, pretty nice porter that I would have again.
