Dark chocolate colour, coffee and chocolate aroma, nice and full in the mouth, it went down so well that suddenly my glass was empty! Cheers!

Mar 8, 2010 Bottle - Dark beer with nice creamy head. Aroma of roasted malt. The beer is a bit thin to drink, but has good malt flavours with slight chocolate and smokey finish. Good beer to drink with heavy meal which will give it more of a balance.

Feb 12, 2010 345mL bottle. Pours a mahogany brown with a small tan head that dissipates quickly. Aroma of roasted malt, with some chocolate and smoke. Medium sweetness, some bitterness from the roasted malt along with a good amount of toasted flavours. Average carbonation, medium bodied and reasonably creamy with a bittersweet finish.

Jan 29, 2010 Good beer. This is ideally what a porter should taste like. Nice roasty, coffee malts with a slight bitter finish. No off notes (like meantime porter) just solid and earthly. For the ABV it is a very good beer. Will drink again. Would love to try on tap.

Jan 14, 2010 Pours dark copper with a quickly fading head.
Nose shows lots of roasted barley, with sweet hints of chocolate and oats. Simple, but very nice.
Similar flavours, with roasted barley growing strong into a long-lasting finish.
Carbonation is a bit excessive, and the body is a bit watery.

Dec 18, 2009 Bottle acquired in Phnom Penh. Brown with reddish tint, fizzy tan head. Aroma of sweet caramel over a coffee cake. Fresh granola bar with some coconut. Malty aromas. Smooth creamy mouthfeel. Some lactose sweetness in the body with acidic finish. A little weak in the roast department but has mild chocolate. Wish it was more toasty-roasty but quite drinkable.

Nov 10, 2009 Bottle (345ml). Pours opaque dark brown with a ruby red hue and a small light brown head that reduces quickly. Aromas of coffee, bitter dark chocolate, molasses and a faint fruitiness. Quite thin bodied on the palate with a low carbonation and pleasant dark roasted malt flavours. A hint of smokiness in the finish. A nice Porter that is not too rich and filling.

Oct 27, 2009 Bottle. Pours darkish with a light brown head that hangs around. Milky chocolate and hints of coffee aromas.Tastes of roasted malt, wheat and chocolate. The nice subtle hops don’t quite make up for over-carbonation and being a touch light in alcohol to support the flavours. Perhaps I’ll try the next one colder.

Oct 17, 2009 Smoke and chocolate taste. Not my type of beer, I dislike chocolate but other than that, great looking beer, good head/carbonation, worth trying!
