For Beer Geeks And Rock Freaks

Rating: 2.5

Tags:

Redolent of nearby Colorado brewer Great Divide’s St. Brigid Stout due to soured coffee grain theme and nutty chocolate variance. But unwanted medicinal astringency, phenol citric-peeled lament, and trashy lactose finish decrease depth substantially.

Rating: 4

Tags:

London-styled smoked porter nestles dry chocolate nose next to freeze-dried coffee mouthfeel before sticky yeast syrup and burnt malt thickness engage chalky mocha finish.

Rating: 3.5

Tags:

Deep brown-hued, sweet mocha-scented porter with earthy bitterness, elegant coffee backup, and thick maple finish subsides too quickly. Ultimately, dark malt resin puts it close to drier alt beer.

Rating: 3.5

Tags:

A salient creamy brown chocolate theme runs through richly bittersweet tan-headed brown body. Chewy toffee-caramel familiarity saturating roasted grain sliver counters dry cocoa finish cloaking embittered tar and tobacco chew hints. Just a tad oily and astringent.

Rating: 3

Tags:

On tap, milk chocolate-y creme de cocoa frontage emboldens charred barley-oats bottom. In the midst, vanilla sweetness counters espresso bitterness as well as minor wood sear. Residual oiliness disrupts mocha finish a tad.

Rating: 4

Tags:

Splendid ebony-hued maroon-sidled porter integrates burnt caramel creaminess and black chocolate thickness with sweet cedar-y raw maple usurpation. Sour coffee midst backs up against moldy orange souring to raspberry puree finish.

Rating: 4

Tags:

Worthy ebony-hued London-styled porter combines roasted barley-oat alacrity with thick black chocolate malt extract for mouthwateringly robust treat. Lively hops fuel carbonation as rich grain bottom solidifies dry nutty contour without becoming too filling, enabling you to drink that much more!

Rating: 3.5

Tags:

Ripe citrus aroma uncanny for robust creamy-headed mahogany porter poured slowly due to explosive yeast-saturated concentration. Wood burnt roasted nut-black coffee bitterness and leafy tobacco remnant lead to brooding raisin sourness before foam-cushioned stone-dry finish retains crackled hop fizz.

Rating: 3.5

Tags:

Blackened-hued, red-highlighted porter takes off-dry hop briskness on dusky mocha journey through cola-macadamia nut excursion before dried raisin influence corrupts black cherry finish.

Rating: 4

Tags:

Sweet candy aroma and prevalent black chocolate thicket court sappy maple malts, earthy mineral grains, and raisin-y nuttiness up-front. Rich mocha creaminess surrounds bitter coffee bean residue at moderate hop-roasted finish. Mellow, water sodden, and extremely casual despite dark as night inky hue.

Rating: 4

Tags:

Full-bodied off-dry ruby-garnet porter allows cascading tan bubbles to build dense upper layer as mildly embittered hop char permeates creamy maple-mocha malt richness, ashy tobacco resin, and fluctuant dried cherry-plum souring. Lingering hazelnut-pecan whir given sour coffee bean propulsion at chalky chocolate finish.

Rating: 5

Tags:

Subtle syrupy yeast opening, milky chocolate malt follow-up, and penetrating mocha-nutty dryness anoint full-bodied bottle-conditioned wood-smoked perfection. Spicy hops embitter burnt caramel center and dry port remnant, remaining consistently creamy yet effervescently mild.
