This porter pours a dark amber sort of colour rather than anything truly black and holds a low bone head. At 5.6% it's on the low side for a porter but nose out of the bottom is promising though dominated by chocolate.
A sip reveals this is a highly drinkable beer if a little sweet. Toffee tones along with the chocolate are the order of the day with no real bitterness to speak of. It's very easy to put away but a bit sweet and a bit one-dimensional.
I feel this beer also is a little overcarbonated, though certainly not to the extent of the pale ale from this maker. It's fizzy where it doesn't need to be and I find myself wondering exactly what the fascination is with this from the boys and girls down at Sierra Nevada. 7.0 from me.
