Pours a very deep, dark brown with a very slight smoky aroma. This is a light Porter in my book that has a nice mouthfeel, but lacks the real creaminess I love in my Porters. The head was creamy and thick but faded very quickly with little or no lacing.

I enjoyed this brew but it lacked a certainly depth and complexity compared to some others of the same style. Nevertheless, I would buy it again.

Nice multi-colored label on the six pack that I bought in early 2004.
