Apr 25, 2008 Updated: Oct 11, 2008Bottle from Utobeer. 6%. Very deep ruby/brown with thin light tan head. Fairly restrained aroma of murky coffee and touch of choc. Some dark fruits and some cheap end supermarket dark choc. Touch of smoke. But as I say, a very restrained porter, some ashtray towards the end. Drinkable, but restrained and a bit too much ashtray. 2.8/5.0 Re-rate Bottle at EBF 08. Blackberry and blackcurrant comes through. That’s a really good fruity porter, the blackcurrant really sings. Gorgeous.

Apr 24, 2008 Sampled on draught at Flying Dog: poured a dark reddish brown colour, close to black. Head was tall and fluffy tan top. Aroma was very pleasent, rich, with a great nutty character- sweet, roasted malts, ginger and a little bit cocoa.

Apr 23, 2008 Pours a translucent brown with a small white head. Aroma of chocolate, caramel and malt. Flavor is malt, hints of chocolate. Very thin bodied brew with some good flavors but overall found it to be a little lacking.

Apr 22, 2008 Bottle @ Chris_o.
Pours deep red mahogany with a small, creamy off-white head. Aroma is softly sweet with a slight chocolate touch. Low to medium carbonation. Flavour is soft, not particularly powerful, subdued chocolate. A little boring.

Apr 21, 2008 A Mes rate: Bottle at the Rake.
Semi translucent red brown with a good beige head. Lots of earthy malt with a bit of chocolate. Not much happening. Slight hops on the finish but pretty bland all round. Thin palate rounds it off suitably.
