Well today is the moment of truth on this one, Sight first, Pitch Black with a HUGE tan head that lasts FOREVER, literally lasted like 10 mins. Smell, honestly can smell the grains little to no hop aroma, it really smells like a "true commercial porter" if that makes any sense, Now on to the best part taste,the smoke is THERE, and STRONG. It is a bit overwhelming, but you can still pick up the caramel sweetness, and the coffee bitterness. Some hop flavor as well but it is light, this one i think will be AMAZING with a good long aging, but at 4 months old it is still a bit overpowering.
