$3.00 on draft, Mellow Mushroom, Hilton Head Island, SC, USA.
Nice looking beer with an excellent head and lacing. Served way, way too cold, I had to let this stand for about 15 minutes before the aroma and taste even began to manifest themeslves properly.
Very servicable Porter with a decent combination of chocolate malts, burned caramel and malts in the nose and the tastes. Did not finish too dry, which I like in my Porter’s, and it maintained a nice level of creaminess; another good characteristic in my book.
Drinkability once the beer had warmed up was better than average and all in all I was pleased. I have been very unimpressed with TC so far, so it was nice to get this decent beer. Nothing to get too excited about yet, but a step in the right direction.
