#361 Boulevard - Bully! Porter

This beer has a light malty aroma with a hint of earthiness. The color is black with a some red highlights shining through. The head pours thick with good retention and large bubbles.

There is a strong roasted malt flavor with some coffee and burnt toast characteristics. The malt has a little sweetness, that is over powered by a tannin flavor from the dark malt. A hint of hop bitterness is present, but again the roast malt is strongest flavor. The mouthfeel is thin with good carbonation. The finish is roasty.

This is really tasty porter, strong dark malt flavors and lots of roast. Might be a bit heavy on the tannin flavor, but thats all.
