Tröegs - Dead Reckoning PorterI’m not sure what the artwork refers to on the bottle, but it looks nice (?). Anyways, this one pours up… black, that’s right it’s a porter. The head is lighter than I expected for this, but it still had a good tan color to it. The aroma was sweet roasted malts. I expected more aroma of chocolates and coffee from it. The taste isn’t what I expected either. It was not a strong coffee or chocolate taste either. It was a bit nutty and has some slight coffee to it. There was a slight aftertaste that hung out for a bit then faded away. Not my favorite porter, but if you are in the mood and that’s all there is…

Specs: 12oz bottle
5.8% ABV
IBU: 53
