Well-respected robust porter boasts tongue-coating bitter coffee usurpation, charred hop resilience, and black licorice finish underscored by variant illusions of black cherry, cocoa leaf, ashy tobacco, and tar. Thick molasses oeuvre is perfect for serious ‘bitter’ fans.

Bittersweet maple-induced coffee-flavored winner. A bit light, fizzy, and unassuming despite blackened hue, but pleasant caramel-chocolate creaminess and cocoa backdrop firm up gently efficient finish.

Frothy bottle conditioned mocha-dried porter with pungent roasted coffee persistence and sour chocolate malt extract retains black molasses stickiness to bitter nut finish. Powdery cocoa sweetness and smoked barley conceal blunt fizz-hopped astringency and wavering ashy undertones, decreasing assertive creamy richness a notch.

Burnt coffee pervades creamy chocolate malt sweetness and dry hop bitterness. Light graining underlines mocha thickness without sacrificing robust nature. Full-bodied lagerheads should give it a try. Brewery defunct: 2001.

Though lacking specificity and mired by antiseptic roasted coffee linger, coarse cola-walnut nudge, slim black licorice resonance, and ashen earthy bottom intensify pleasing scorched wood dryness of hybridized Brit-styled (?) porter.

Frothily creamed brown-headed swamp-scented port with powdered cocoa dryness, caramelized mocha splendor, roasted barley-nut surge and maple oatiness deepened by pine-embittered licorice-licked prune-soured black coffee finish. Mired only by oily coffee grain bottom.

Lovely silken mahogany porter brings initial chocolate-cinnamon pinch to coffee-roasted barley-oats moderation. Dry nut and piney resin affirm burnt wood backdrop as earthy hops conceal fig-date spell. On tap, creamy chocolate-milked ice coffee depth and plush hazelnut-walnut respite darkened by charcoal nip.

Swell (formerly) limited edition porter places ’100% Hawaiian kona coffee’ and maple-sapped molasses sweetness atop dark roasted barley-hops. Creamy cappuccino surge soothes chewy vanilla-chocolate-coconut confluence and teensy cocoa dusting to mildly dry coffee bean-embittered finish (with wavered black peppering). Fluffy carbolic fizz nearly overwhelms milky texture.

Spectacularly robust charcoal-stained full body pours ebony with ruby-maroon highlights. Dry coffee bean frontage yields to boisterous dark chocolate bitterness thickening hop-roasted toasted oats spine. Glancing walnut coarseness sways black tar finish, yet despite rigid frothy density, clean-watered flow thaws dusky adjuncts.

Dominant iced coffee frontage saturates cascading tan-headed mahogany-hued medium body. Chalky mocha, maple, tobacco, and chestnut illusions endow oncoming brown chocolate insistence as dark fruited finish gathers momentum.

Terrific ruby-browned lactose porter mounts loud chocolate-toffee profile atop caramel pecan buttering and cookie dough intimation. Roasted coffee-nut coarseness increases frothy mocha depth and earthy peat tinge to dry-hopped smoked grain finish.

Marvelous full-bodied ruby brown dessert beer comes in squat 12-ounce teardrop-shaped bottle and retains delicious Hershey’s chocolate sweetness. Beautiful lactic porter gains complexity as creamy vanilla, burnt caramel, and roasted mocha nicely recede, allowing dry coffee bean roast to become prominent. After initial brown chocolate luster levels off, milky cappuccino bittering strengthens.
