Dry black coffee theme allows musty floral fruit nose, toasted malt mouthfeel, doughy yeast sinew, and deep berry seepage to influence chewy molasses-like dark chocolate finish. Inviting as crossover for matured pilsner-lager fans yet timid, watery, and less creamy than full-bodied porters.

Funny Mormon jab on label and deep ruby translucence are finest assets of light-bodied polygamist. Day-old iced coffee souring, murky raisin dessication, dry walnut tease and minor wheat husk stalled by sulfuric astringency barren mocha finish can’t redeem.

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.
