Now on tap at my weekly spot for hot wings and cold beer - Porky's Cafe - Sebago Bump.
Bump (5.30% ABV) is a American Black Ale. It's not a porter or a stout. It's not an IPA. It's something other.
It is a deep dark brown; pretty darned close to black. The head is very stoutish - big, fluffy and dense.
The aroma is kind of Russian Imperial Stout like. Notes of coffee, cocoa but with a mild twang of hops.
The taste is mostly roasty; coffee, cocoa dominate the palate but there, again, is the crisp bite of hops. It's quite a pleasant taste experience. The finish is mildly bitter.
The mouth feel is light and effervescent.
Bump is a good brew. It has the characteristics of a dark roasted stout but easy drinking and refreshing. I like it!
Overall: good
