Great Lakes Edmund Fitzgerald Porter
Very dark brownish red with ruby highlights around the edges and a good looking tan head. Spotty lace scattered itself all around the glass as I drank. When I raised the glass to my nose I was hit with a big whiff of roasted malts, a hint of smokiness, and rich dark chocolate. A very inviting, delicious smelling beer. The taste opens up with big roasted malts which blend perfectly with bittersweet chocolate and caramel followed by a smokey, lingering aftertaste. The smooth medium/full body and light carbonation complement the big robust flavors of the beer nicely. This is a great porter that I have to put on my list of must have beers once the winter starts to set it.
