Vas19 (214), Maryland, USA Mar 22, 2008 Deep black color, thick tan head. Roasted malt aroma. There is a strong sweetness with a nice roasted malt flavor to balance it out. Very smooth, maybe a tad too light, but a good beer.
ucusty (1062), Wake Forest, North Carolina, USA Sep 4, 2008 Dark brown pour, tan head, spotty lace. Thick bodied. Chocolate and coffee, combined with a roasty finish uselesslogic (2), , Iowa, USA does not count Sep 4, 2008 I was surprised at how dark and thick this beer poured. With its thick flow to its brown head, this resembled a coffee stout more than a porter in appearance. The smell is a lovely, deep chocolate licorice and the taste and mouthfeel is creamy and chocolatey. This beer is so full bodied and full flavored that you’d guess it was a stout. This could be dessert. buzzoven (121), Japan Sep 1, 2008 Chocolate smell, ruby dark brown/black in colour. Beautifully smooth mouthfeel, creamy texture. Very pleasant toffee, coffe, licorice, anise flavours. A treat. zappafan99 (312), Rock Hill, South Carolina, USA Aug 31, 2008 Taste 8/8 Bottle(7DT). Looks: Opaque black, tan head. Aroma: Roast/toast. Dark fruit licorice. Biscuit/yeast. Taste: Nice roast and fruit mix. Medium sticky body. A nice smoke. Good and evenly complex. PaulHegedus (64), Brampton, Ontario, Canada Aug 31, 2008 Draught at the Brewery, August 2008. Beautiful, almost black with a fairly generous, foaming head: holds chocolate, coffee bean aromas.
