Apr 14, 2007 11.2oz bottle. Poured a dark brown color with a small sized off white head. Lots of floaters. Subtle aromas of roast, chocolate, and caramel. Tastes of roast, chocolate, and light coffee. Thinner body. Both the aromas and tastes were on the weak side. This was drinkable, but boring.

Apr 1, 2007 bottle - Pours almost black with a thin tan head. The ample aroma has roast malt and prominent chocolate notes. The flavor is roast malt, chocolate, and coffee blending together in a very tasty combination. Well balanced and full bodied, this is a very good example of the style.

Mar 25, 2007 Pours a very dark with a little tan head. Aroma that is very malty with a hint of chocolate. Flavors include some chocolate, coffee, and roasted malts. Pretty good porter.

Mar 25, 2007 12 oz Bottle-Poured black w/a slight tan head. Rich malted aroma. This is what a porter should taste like. Chocolate, licorice, coffee, molasses, & roasted malt w/a thick chewy mouthfeel & a good touch of carbination. Long woodsy finish.

Mar 25, 2007 cincy gathering mar 2007: fantastic, loved it! Nice and creamy with a scotch underlying flavor, no harsh finish: though a tad oily that dimished the head. This is how a beer should taste.

Mar 23, 2007 Smooth malty aroma, with hints of vanilla, and chocolate. Pours black with a thin white head. Smooth and creamy upfront, vanilla, cafe au lait, hoppey crispness cuts in and then finishes smooth again with loads of vanilla.

Mar 11, 2007 A deep dark porter with a thin moka head. Aroma of bitter chocolate, cardamom and licroice, with some buttery notes, quite pleasing. In mouth, a rather light porter in the begiining, but which yields long roasted malts and bitter chocolate long after the sip is taken. There is some woody notes here, and light metallic bitterness. Interesting. BOTW, fall 2006.

Mar 1, 2007 Good not great. Some hops for a porter. Some nice subtle chocolate and coffee flavors, but definitely subtle. A good, but far from great beer.
