Founders Porter
This one pours black with hues of nothing. Just thick, inky blackness. The head pours about two fingers but doesn't take very long to dissipate, though a very slight, thin head remains. Nice lacing clings all over the glass. The smell is what I've come to expect from a good porter. Coffee, hints of dark chocolate, a slight alcoholic tinge and a little bitterness. The taste is likewise what I've come to expect from a good porter. All of the above with a smoky grain flavor and balanced light bitterness. The mouthfeel is thick and rich, very nice and smooth. Carbonation is light and it's medium-bodied. All in all I found myself in agreement with the claim on the bottle that this is "dark, rich and sexy."
