L: Had this beer on-tap at The Answer Brewpub, poured into a snifter glass. Had a dark brown / black color and a thick consistency. There was a half inch of creamy, tan-colored, fairly long-lasting head. Good lacing.

S: A super-enticing aroma of chocolate, malt, rum, coconut, and marshmallow.

T: Tasted of a moderate amount of malt (present throughout), light coffee notes, a ton of chocolate (always welcome), a lot of rum, a hint of coconut, some marshmallow, and a bit of apple brandy. This is a big, bracing, complex flavor. The barrel aging adds a good dimension to something that's already sweet and tasty. Delicious stuff.

F: A good amount of carbonation with a silky smooth finish. Full-bodied.

O: This is more like a stout than porter, but that doesn't matter. Extremely drinkable.
