lumberjack (178), Michigan, USA Oct 26, 2007 Above average porter though not as complex as I would have like. Basically a much lighter tasting Kalamazoo Stout. tbookman (618), Ephrata, Pennsylvania, USA Oct 23, 2007 Dark brown color - slightly clear with a light tan head. ARoma is sweet, roasty with a hint of coffee. Sweet flavor, roasty, rich and slightly warming. Body is a little silky and a little thin. Finish is warm and a bit bitter. Well balanced and pleasant porter. MadIndian (987), Levittown, Pennsylvania, USA Oct 21, 2007 Sampled at the Newtown Brewfest 07 with Stegosaurus. Thank god they were their this year. I love this company Dark brown pour with a coffee/chocolately roasty aroma. Good solid bite with a bitter finish. Not their best work but still damn good. performula (147), Triangle Area, North Carolina, USA Oct 20, 2007 Looks like Coca~Cola when poured, just a creamier head. Strong smell of coffee. Big taste of dark chocolate and coffee. Finish is slight watery but smooth. tunneler (112), Charlottesville, Virginia, USA Oct 17, 2007 Dark brown with a good balance of sweet/roasted flavor and small bit of coffee to complement the chocolate flavors. mvcramer (229), Arlington, Massachusetts, USA Oct 16, 2007 Yet another solid brew from Bells. These guys just make good beer. Nothing flashy, but always good. Pours a dark brown with a nice off-white head. Nice roasted aroma with mild coffe notes. Pleasant hop bite on finish without unbalancing the overall flavor. Excellent porter. jmuhops (663), Winchester, Virginia, USA Oct 14, 2007 Pours black with deep brown highlights and a one-finger white head. Great mocha aroma. Swirling brings out a unique toasted raisin smell. More of the roastiness comes through in the flavor, but the relative lightness and milk chocolate finish remind you you’re drinking a Porter. Good stuff. Immy (1912), Virginia Beach, Virginia, USA Oct 14, 2007 12 oz bottle. Very dark brown with a creamy brown head. Definite chocolate and coffee presence in the nose and flavor. Solid malt base. Medium body. Not a thriller, but a solid brew.
