BUTTE CREEK ORGANIC PORTER 8/31/16
Last of the four new in the latest beer shipment assortment. We do not get this west coast brewery's products in my state.
Poured from the 12 oz. bottle into a Samuel Adams English nonick.
a: Clear dark ruby with an inch thick offwhite head which receded tro thin surface foam and patchy lacing.
s: Mild black coffee.
t; Dark roasty malt up front with a moderate hop bite. Mild black coffee in the finish.
m; Light to medium, ok body with a few watery notes, also light to medium carbonation tingle.
o: Lightweight even for a porter, but decent enough for a dinner or warmish weather beverage. Rather too bitter and underflavored to be more.

Dark brown with almost no lacing. Very weak nose of light malt, some toffee and grains. And you really have to sniff hard for it. Taste is more noticeable; consisting of roasted barley, some coffee and chocolate. Very thin,watery body. The flavor is there, but could use a little more character.
