From the brewer

Brewed for our friends at the 9 Pound Hammer here in Georgetown, this is an exceptionally flavorful medium bodied porter. We use tons of Chocolate, Munich, and Roasted Malt, then blend it with Centennial and Northern Brewer hops to create what we'd like to call Roasted Chocolaty Goodness. Mmm.. porter. Buy it by the pint at the Nine Pound Hammer or come on in to our retail shop for growlers to go!

Who's been drinking this

Absolutely quintessential example of the style. Roast, caramel, light hops. Immediately filled with nostalgia and memories of fried foods.
I have a strong suspicion they poured me the wrong beer. This was very bitter, almost burnt. Good base chocolate-roast stout flavor but hard to enjoy greatly.
Draft
A creamy, mildly roasty porter. I think I'd call this excellent for the style.
Medium bodied, easy drinking but tons of coffee, roasted malt and dark chocolate. Enough hopping to make the finish clean.
Nothing like a hearty porter for a rainy day.
