3.3 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 5/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 12/20
0.55 l bottle. Almost black color with creamy tan head. Malty and coffeish aroma. Roasty and malty flavor with coffee and chocolate. Tasty but lacks complexity which makes porters so great.

While nothing blew me away at Bushwakker, all of their beers were quality, and this one was one of my favourite. Nicely sweet and roasted tasting. Nice.

This was a nice beer at Bushwakker. Very dark brown, rich colour. Dark roasted malts aroma and flavour. Smooth and creamy texture. A quality porter.

Bottle thanks to bu11zeye.
Deep brown pour with some tan head. Aroma is coffee - more coffee flavor with some roast.
3.5 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 14/20
Bomber. Black with a nice mocha head that fades fairly quickly. Roasted and somewhat sweet malts, light coffee, molasses, bit of smoke and chocolate. Moderately high carbonation, little thin, more sweet then bitter, bit of tang which seems out of space, dry and malts/molasses at the end.
3.7 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 15/20
This is probably my favourite Bushwakker beer. Pours black with a thin head. Tons of roasty malt, caramel, cocoa and coffee. Medium body with light carb.

Pint on tap at the brewery pours almost black in color with a small beige head which leaves some spotted lacing on the glass. Aroma is roasted malts with hints of chocolate and coffee. Taste is roasted malt and coffee bitterness balanced with some chocolate malty sweetness and a light hop bitterness. Medium body and good carbonation. Good stuff.

(650ml bottle dated Jan 13, 2011 thanks to bu11zeye) clear ruby/brown with soapy tan bubbles. Nose of cocoa, chocolate wafers. Taste of raisin, toasty, cream, mild umami, and tomatoes. Oily body.

Gift from SJ. A nice brown pour with a red hue. Aromas of sweet choclate malts and roast. A dry roasted and coffee taste. Not bad.
3.1 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20
650ml bottle poured into an English pint. Poured dark brown with minimal light brown head that dissipated rather quickly. Pleasant aroma of roasted malt and coffee. Palate is smooth, medium bodied, with light carbonation. Tastes is inititially sweet, of light chocolate malt and roast coffee, with a bitter finish. Overall this is a good porter (which, if memory serves, is somewhat better served on tap).
