The Face poured this one and the head was high for awhile. A sweet almost caramel and roasted scent comes off the glass. With the first sip you get that nice smokiness. It's slightly sweet but also very bitter from the coffee and smoke. This one also has a nice strong hop flavor. Most porters just leave it for the malts to do the talking. This gives the hops a real strong character at the end of the taste. That, to me, seems to be the lingering flavor in the follicles each sip. This one is a really good porter.
Java Sutra was the first Three Heads I had and loved it. The more they make the more I like of their beers. This one, like I said, has that great hop flavor on top of the normal flavors of a great coffee porter. If you start your Three Heads experience with Java Sutra because of this review, YOU'RE WELCOME!
