Love this dark beer - has some great smoke to it and is well balanced with hops and malt. Top choice for my House dark ale - great value & great complexity!

Very good, crisp, like a dunkel, carbonated.

Smells like a stout, good malty nose. Not as dark as I thought for black in the name, a translucent brown. Small head, but nice carbonation. Very tasty, SUPER complex with many layers. Definitely more on the stout side, even one of those "porters" that seem like a stout. Bit of an ale pop and hop taste at the beginning, comes very toasted and malty. Great aftertaste, doesn't die out. Very impressive.

Toasty and molasses flavor. Sweet. Very drinkable but loses flavor after a few sips.

A nice heavy, nutty dark ale. Perfect fall drink if you're sick of pumpkin beers

Delicious! Not too strong, or too mild.

My go-to Irish Car Bomb beer, as it's like a more flavorful Guinness.

Dark brown in color, sweet nutty aroma, very little head when poured in a glass. Sweet taste at first the finishes with a very nut brown taste and feel. Overall a decent porter for the price.
