Oct 1, 2002 Updated: Jul 21, 2003Rerate 6/5/03 - Still a damn good Porter but my palate has matured since then, a bit more acidic in the aftertaste than I had remembered and slightly watery; aroma is not quite as pungent and coffee/chocolate/licoricelike still great though - Original 10/12/02 4.8 - Wow! excellent porter, strong, licorice aroma, dark as night appearance. Full bodied to the bottom of the glass. Complex flavors going on here, coffee, chocolate, licorice - all blend together beautifully to form a masterful porter of distinction. highly recommended!

Feb 17, 2003 Nice complex porter. One with lots of hidden flavors that keep you working. Can be a bit challenging. This is the porter to set sites on if you really wanna know this genre. Some are bigger(sam smith), some are mellower. This one gives lots of real full flavors, that go great with a big fat steak.

Nov 9, 2003 mmm unusual label story lets see how those 1825 yeasts hold up.
The beer pours a nice dark mahogany brown with a good sized tan head,,though it goes down pretty quick all in all a good looking beer.
I liked the aroma of this beer,,very roasted malts so very chocolaty..but yet fresh.
again nice taste very cocoa like in the first instance then a dark coffee flavour takes over,,theres a hint of bitterness at the end( hops)
Feels very comfortable on the tongue,,tasty!
A quite drinkable Porter..i liked it,,very nicelly done.

Feb 3, 2005 Very good porter that actually has different levels to enjoy. It seems that most porters come off as watery or too stouty. This one knows what it is trying to do and it succeeds. Opaque with absolutely no head. Sweetness and coffee bitterness. A very good example of the style and easy to drink in every way. A good intro to non Porter drinkers Tastes like an old style and its historical nature appeals to the history buff in me. Also enjoyed George Washingtons Porter.

Nov 6, 2009 Bottle pours deep brownish and black with a creamy brown head. Slight boozy aroma but deep burnt sugar, plum and oak notes. Nice dryness on the tongue followed by coffee and tobacco flavors. Nice body and quenching too. Almost a smoked porter. VERY nice.

Nov 21, 2009 12 oz. bottle - Malty and smooth. Low carbonation led to a great mouth feel. Very smooth. Molasses with a bit of burned sugar throughout. Very little hop presence. Sweet but semi dry finish. A very nice porter.
