Quick Review: Pours a one finger mocha colored head and black in color. Very heavy coffee aroma with some dark chocolate and roasted malt. Taste is heavy on the coffee as well, with a cold brew flavor to it. Some chocolate helps sweeten it up, but this ends up being almost too bitter and coffee forward. A little more sweetness could have really added that small bit of balance to compliment what is a very good coffee component. Overall, solid coffee porter, worth getting again, but just needs a tad more balance to be great.

Got this as part of a beer flight... great deal, 4 samples for $6 and they're 5 oz. each.

This was a nice dark brown beer with a thin layer of head, no real lacing but what there was hung around for a while. Looked darker than a porter.

Aroma was also much more intense than a porter. Dark roasted malts, burnt barley, and roasted coffee. Very strong.

Taste was of very strong burnt barley, dark malts, and coffee, with a major roasted kick. Again, had I not known they were calling it a porter, I would have classified this as a stout.
