May 12, 2007 Bottle. Luscious chocolate aroma. Deep ruby body, nearly black, with a short tanned head. Taste is delicious chocolate and slightly ashy roast. Subtle but well-blended. Medium body, dryish aftertaste. Bittersweetness in the main issue is restrained and classy, but the mild sourness adds the interest. I may have drawn a few points for the romantic backstory, but at the least, this is a nice session porter....

May 8, 2007 Pours a pretty standard porter, dark and reddish when held up to the light. Medium light tan head. The aroma had slight chocolate and coffee notes. A slight smokey character. The flavor was a little roasty, espresso, bakers chocolate. The palate was tad thin. Overall a good porter with a cool background.

May 5, 2007 Bottle. Pours with a dark brown color and a small head. Not much of an aroma, perhaps a slight roastiness and a bit of dough. Flavors start out wiht roasted malts and hazelnuts but then are immediately overpowered by the yeastiness. This is different than a regular porter, much less body to it.

May 4, 2007 Bottle. Very dark brown pour with light tan head that dissipated rather quickly. Aroma of black licorice and coffee. Taste is full of roastiness. Pretty good stuff, but I have other porters I prefer.

Apr 27, 2007 11.2 oz bottle via Malt of The Earth beer club. Pours near black with an average sized beige head. Not much in the nose, just some subtle roastiness. Taste is much stronger than the arona. Lots of roastiness, some chocolate, and burnt coffee in the finish/aftertaste. Carbonation is moderate to high. Body is medium. Pretty bold and tasty for a porter.
