Gorilla Warfare Porter is a silky smooth porter made with 40 lbs of Park Slope's Gorilla Coffee Ethiopian Yergacheffe blend, a Fair Trade and Organic Certified coffee roasted in Sunset Park, Brooklyn. The coffee has winey, spicy notes with hints of baker's chocolate. Combined with patent malt, the signature of many great English-style porters, this is one silky smooth, coffee-rich porter.

[1] Review by YumBeer from Edgewater, NJ, USA who has tried this beer once. (4/23/2008 7:38:44 PM)
"A very dark beer, almost black, with very little head retention. What I noticed right away were the aromas of roasted coffee and alcohol strength with no sign of hops at all. A very smooth drinking beer that had the taste of coffee, ash(imparted from the very strong roasted, burnt malts), and could also taste the alcohol. As the beer came to room temperature the ash flavor mellowed and the tatse of alcohol became stronger yet smoother."
