Alright, here goes with the fourth beer in what is probably the most disappointing BOTM club shipment since the one with three wits in it. It's a porter, so I'm hoping for the best. I don't get the baby blue and yellow label though. It's a porter, not bottled water. Well, I hope not, anyway.
Huh. Pours well. Opague and black with brown highlights, but not as opaque as a stout. Great tan to brown cascading head. That's a surprise. Decent carbonation that you can see up to about 1/4 inch into the glass.
Roasted and slightly sweet malt. I know it has no lactose in it, but it smells like that kind of sweetness.
Same roasted grain taste and a decent bitter pop. It's indistinct, with any particular characteristics drowned out by the roasted flavor. It still has that hint of sweetness too, and it still seems a bit like a milk stout.
Surprisingly good beer. I'll keep the other two of these, and give the six remaining beers from this run to someone else.
