Dec 5, 2008 From a 12 oz bottle pours a dark brown - not quite black with a thin head that did not linger - minimal lacing on the glass. Aroma of chocolate, malts and toffee. Tasted a smokey hop with chocolate, some caramel as well as the hints of toffee. Seemed a little thinner and more carbonated than some other higher quality porters I have enjoyed. A decent beer. The label was the best part - got a chuckle from that.

Nov 30, 2008 Bottle at Claus’ b-day. Pours a dark brown wita a tanned head. Quite sweet and malty. Some aromas of roasted malts and some coffee and chocolate. Medium body. Medium carbonation. Dry finish with more aromas of roasted malts. Kinda boring. Could easily do with a bit more ’omph’.

Nov 30, 2008 Colour is deep ruby red with off-white head. Coffee and rich chocolate on the aroma, with coffee firstly in the taste then the chocolate and a hint of burnt notes. Not quite medium body, fairly smooth and easy enough to have a session on.

Nov 29, 2008 12 ounce bottle. Nice head lasts what seems like forever. Dark, like a porter should be, some coffee, malts, and a nice mouthfeel. Nice job.

Nov 28, 2008 12 oz. bottle. Pours a thick lasting head with minimal lacing, over a light, clear brownish body.....nose of coffee then chocolate malts....tastes primarily of malts with coffee roasting overtones...mild and rather light mouth feel. Pleasant, but I would not seek it out. 11/27/2008

Nov 28, 2008 Medium light brown with a tthin, wispy foam that quickly disappears. Aroma of cocoa powder and hops. Raisins, hops and cocoa powder are evident in the flavor. Thin, dry body that is a little too carbonated. A drinkable beer.

Nov 17, 2008 A thin looking black with ruby highlights and a thin cover of light tan head that dissipates slowly but eventually leaves only a ring at the edge of the glass. Thin roasted malt aroma, some coffee and burnt toast. Taste is more nice roasted malts, a bit thin but the roasted coffee sneaks in at the end.
