Black color. Very solid brew, strong body, good chocolate flavor (the aroma is simpler), sweet enough, touch of roasted malt, good hopping, strong bitterness and pleasant warming alcohol; powerful. The final has also some roasted nuts Very good.

Nov 27, 2008 Once again, AleSmith produced some very solid stuff. I am not a huge fan of Porter beers, but this was very good. Nice aroma and flavor of coffee, chocolate, and some dark malt. Just a little bit of bitterness at the end. 10% hidden very well. Good stuff.

Oct 31, 2008 Bottle. [Tasting session @ Papsoe, 31-10-2008] large lovely looking foamy head that mostly lasted. Good display of lacework. Dark mahogany color. Aroma of roasted malt, chocolate, coffee, nuts, dried fruit. Over the palate came heavy roasted malt, sweet chocolate and coffee. Quite smooth even do it was complex and strong over the palate. Full bodied with an average carbonation, thick mild alcoholic texture. Heavy sweet flavor with good counter bitterness. Strong sweet chocolate and roasted malty finish with an everlasting duration.

Oct 30, 2008 Poured with ha beautiful gray head. Smelled like cocoa and coffee. Tasted like dark chocolate cake and hints of dark fruit. Silky smooth for the mouthfeel. Perfect price at $10.99 a bottle, and should age quite nicely.
