I have a secret love affair with porters. This one is a little sweeter than I usually like and lacked the heavy black malt flavors that I am particulary fond of. It has won an award in 1999 and 2003 in the GABF and is overall a well balanced porter. It has a malty smell, light tan head, dark body, with just a tint of black malty goodness. Overall a decent beer but nothing really stood out to me. Take that as good, bad, or nuetral. Whatever you do, pour slowly, I had a few yeasty chucks floating around in my glass (and I do a careful pour).
