Man, when pouring this one into a glass, it gives off smells of chocolate for sure, along with some coffee and a little bit of dark fruit.
It pours a dark brown color with a nice, foamy head that isn't so large as to be annoying.
Gives off a smooth burnt-maple flavor with a touch of smoke and a little of that dark fruitiness.
Creamy and smooth enough for regular drinking.
Coming to us from England, apparently the recipe for this porter is from the 19th Century, and according to the bottle's label the yeast used to make this brew was "salvaged from a sunken vessel in the English Channel" and that vessel was sunk in 1825.
