| 4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 5/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 17/20 | Dec 24, 2006 A nose that is nothing spectacular...barley and a bit of roasted smokiness. A light head...but the coal black finish promises treasures awaiting. Tastes of roasted coffee toned barley with the merest hint of butternut vanilla, of all bloody things. The mouth comes alive with malts, hops, and the smooth warmth of alcohol. Damned good.-+++++++++++++++++++++++ troopie (867), USA

| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Dec 10, 2006 22 oz bottle. Very rich, very sweet. A mediocre porter, nothing jumps out at me. Bu I can tell a lot of ingredients were put into it, thick and dark, a good by for 3 bucks. duffman462 (160), Gainesville, Florida, USA

Flavor is very toasy and nice, with some notes of coffee. Very soft and sipable, although not especially coplex or exciting. A very nice porter, however.... ABUSEDGOAT (1934), California, USA
| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Nov 28, 2006 A darker colored porter with a moderate sized tan head. Aroma is roasted coffee with notes of chocolate and caramel. Flavor brings this, some roasty bitterness. More roasty than most porters. Still though, there’s a million others that are a lot like it.
