mcjay (302), Neenah, Wisconsin, USA Mar 28, 2009 Black color with a thin tan head. Light coffee aroma. Flavor of dark chocolate with a dry finish. dmschefke (371), Eastpointe, Michigan, USA Mar 27, 2009 Pours a nice black with medium brown head. Aroma of chocolate, coffee, and roasted malt evident. Taste of chocolate, coffee, and black liquorice. Very dry mouthfeel with an aftertaste of a bitter hops. Altogether a very nice dry porter. minch25 (350), Columbus, Ohio, USA Mar 27, 2009 Pours very dark near black, medium mocha head. Dry "chalky" aroma, and something almost spicy, as of cardamom(?!). Quite dry roasty flavor, and this cardamom impression comes through in the finish. Very unusual aftertaste, almost hoppy bitterness, almost rubber, and spice. This is a quality dry porter, even though my preference is for the sweeter variety. Adam77 (407), Eastampton, New Jersey, USA Mar 26, 2009 Poured black with a tan head. Aroma of roasted coffee and chocolate. Some coffee and chocolate. Little bit of hops. Good stuff. Moggman (187), Columbus, Ohio, USA Mar 25, 2009 Bottle. Pours black with thin dark brown head. Aroma is chocolatey and malty with notes of coffee. Flavor is dark and slightly bitter with coffee and chocolate notes. Lowe1983 (1029), Fairborn, Ohio, USA Mar 24, 2009 Pours a dark brown color with a nice tan head. Aroma is mostly chocolate with some coffee, roasted malts, and molasses. Flavor is the same with a little bitterness on the finish. bfeldmann (1042), Wilmington, Delaware, USA Mar 23, 2009 Pour was a darkish brown with a dark tan head. Aroma was mostly a chocolate and some roastedness. Flavor was much the same but the sweetness didn’t overwelm the beer good job.
rdyck (4), Eagan, Minnesota, USA does not count Mar 21, 2009 Nice roasted coffee aroma. Pours black, with little head. Nice body with flavors of roasted coffee finishing with a touch of bitter hops on the finish. Very fine porter and a good value. I will by this again.
