Bottle - Cream and chocolate aroma. A tad thin, but this beer does have a nice roasted/burnt flavor that helps compensate for the thin quality of the beer. A very enjoyable beer.

Jul 22, 2008 bottle BB may/2008 by way of StFun... pours a dark woody mahogany shade of brown with a quickly dissipating tan head. the aroma and flavor are chocolate, grassy hops, coffee-like nuttiness and some metallic malty grains. there’s a bit of ashy/astringency on the dry mildly bitter/woody finish. it’s a little light in the body but it makes that up with nice acidity and creamy carbonation...

Jul 17, 2008 12 oz, bb Sept 08. Nearly opaque brown-black with a small head that lasts. Aroma is cocoa with slight caramel and coffee. Flavor is earthy caramel, cocoa and some slight apple and prickly herbs. A nice bitter finish of char, herbs and ash. Medium body is almost chalky-dry, and light on carbonation. Nice take on the traditional British style.

May 26, 2008 There is little to no aroma. It is black and opaque with a head that lingers a few minutes. The flavour is chocolatey and malty, but with an unnecessarily offensive overly bitter aftertaste. Really quite bitter and not recommended, though certainly still better than many beers. Just beware. Kind of boring and bitter.

May 25, 2008 Dark brown with thin tan head. Aroma of roasted malts and coffee. Taste of roasted malts, coffee and mild chocolate. Not a great effort for a porter.
