Batch 128 Porter tasting notes

Cellar temp

Pours black, very deep red, clear, big tan head that billows, stays.

Aroma roasted fruit, sweet malt, slight tang/earthy hops

Mouthfeel moderate body, big carb, slight coating, hop bitterness at end

Flavor bitter chocolate, hops on top, malt sweetness is lost here, as is yeast fruit

Overall, too many IBUs here, could drop 5-10 IBUs easily, and could raise ferm temp a bit.  Malt bill is too roasty, not as sweet as I expect here.
