Bottle. Sweet nose, lots of coffee and caramel. Dark brown with an amber tint. Opens sharp and thin, especially thin in the middle, and finishes a bit more smoothly. Strong bittersweet coffee flavor. An okay attempt, but a disappointing porter overall.

Thanks to Degarth for this unique beer to try! Nice black body with minimal head. Very pungent aroma, mollasses, cherry, prunes, roasted malts. Flavor is full of chocolate and coffee, somewhat thiner than I’d imagined though. Nice slight bitterness in the ending. Overall, a nice porter.

3.6 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 15/20 beedman (53) - Cocoa Beach, Florida, USA - OCT 20, 2006
12 oz. bought locally. Pours a beautiful dark cola colour, with minimal foam and low carbonation. Aroma is deep malt with chocolate and coffee. Tastes smooth and feels slightly syrupy due to minimal carbonation. Lots of coffee, bitter chocolate and some grassy hop character. At a dollar a bottle, it can’t be beat.
