I had this beer on-tap in a pint glass at the brewery. It's marketed as a "colonial-era molasses porter", so I'm inclined to cut it some stylistic breaks.

Appearance: rich dark brown hue with a finger of tan foam. More like a brown ale, but you could argue brown porter as well.

Smell: sweetish, nutty and interesting. Smells more like a brown than a porter, but I'm not turned off by it.

Taste: totally crazy. It tastes like a nut brown ale with, like, hay or straw or something. Or no, green tea, the kind with the dried rice in it. I cannot speak to its historical accuracy, but it is kind of nuts, and I kind of like it, sorta.

Mouthfeel: medium body with a huge carbonation and good creaminess.

Overall: this beer is, like I said, crazy town. I would not call it a porter, but with these historical styles anything goes. That said ... I could definitely down a few of these.
