Yeaaa Baby! 12 oz bottle. Pours a dark opaque ruby red with small short lasting cream colored head and very little lacing. Aroma is rich – reminiscent of a decadent chocolate desert or, amazingly, like a “tootsie roll” for you baby boomers. Inviting! Taste is a blend of semi sweet chocolate (next bottle please – this stuff is going down like an ice cold coke on a hot day), coffee, and cola. Slightly effervescent on the tongue – great texture and mouth feel. Not too sweet or heavy. A bit dry on the finish. In short, a new favorite.

i can see why many people mistake this cream porter for a stout. heavy and thick bodied, smoother than most porters. not a lot of complexity here, but what it does it does well. recomended.

Very solid stout. I have had many stouts that are so robust that it makes them hard to drink. But this one was a little different. I don't want to say watery, but it had way more "drinkability" than most other stouts. Drinkable and very affordable. Good beer. worth drinking if you like stouts

Pours an opaque colour with a medium sized vanilla coloured head. Has aromas of roasted nuts and oak. Has a mouthfeel that is lighter with a silky finish. Tasted plenty of nuttiness once again, cocoa and coffee. Overall, very nice beer.

Pours black with some ruby notes around the edges. There's a thin head that quickly diapears some mild lacing. Smells are all subdued: Chocolate, some coffee, and not much else going on. Taste mild chocolate, and coffee, rather mild for this style. There's a very thin mouthfeel to this beer that is not very satisfying. There's just not that much going on with this beer. Smell does get slightly better as it gets warmer, but that's about it. Drinkabilty is decent due to the fact that the flavors are mild, and there's very little bitterness present.

A pitch black appearance with a moderate beige head. The aroma is milk, coffee, and chocolate. The flavor is somewhat bitter and very smooth with a lot of coffee, chocolate, and milk same as the aroma would lead you to believe. A creamy mouthfeel but slightly chalky at the end. Overall this is a nice simple porter.

Sampled as part of a winter brew pack. Very nice beer. Had a very dark pour with a thick white head. Taste of roasted spices and chocolate are very nice. Highly recommended.

Poured a dark dark brown. Aroma was roasted and malty. Flavor was of roasted malts butter maybe, and some pine hops Not really sure it i enjoyed this one. Was better as it warmed but wasn't a top of the line porter by any means.
