Our porter is rich and robust, dark brown in colour with a dark roasted coffee nose, imparting an intense coffee flavour with notes of chocolate.
Made with beans supplied by the Distillery District’s Balzac's Coffee, this porter offers a rich, full and unique flavour. Currently, there are no other coffee-flavoured beers in the Ontario market.

[1] Review by cicil from saskatoon, Canada who has tried this beer many times. (7/18/2008 10:26:55 PM)
"Wonderful tasting beer with strong coffee smell and molasses undertones. Dark black color and nice sparkle on the tongue even after the beer has sat for a while. One of my favorite beers which I buy almost every week. Bravo to this brewery."

"This beer is a very dark brown in colour, almost black. The aroma is heavy on the coffee..no question what the bloodlines of this beer are. The flavour is a of a slightly sweet coffee."

[3] Review by lenusik from Toronto, Canada who has tried this beer a couple times. (11/25/2007 9:30:09 PM)
"This is a much talked about brew in the Toronto area. This beer is the reason I decided to try the vaunted Mill Steet line. The beer was appealing in colour (dark brown...like coffee), in aroma (coffee), and flavour (um...more coffee). But don't get me wrong......this is a beer, and a damn good one."
