Notes:

Less than 2 weeks in the bottle and this is a nice Porter, or maybe more of a Stout. I get more roasted flavor and coffee than chocolate, with only a hint of sweetness. Had a nice head that lasted and laced nicely on the glass.

Comments

This might be the best Porter or maybe more of a Stout I have ever brewed.
