Jun 13, 2005 Dark brown pour that let’s just a little light through it...no surprise there. Has an off-white head that disssipates quickly. Aroma has hints of caramel. Flavor is unusual for a porter....has a strong shot of roasted nuts in the finish. Coffee in the front end. I thought it coated the tongue well for a porter.

Feb 11, 2005 Good dark color, flat pallet. Nice tannish head. Deep, bitey smokey flavor. I like this more than I liked their pale ale.

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.

Dec 4, 2007 Wow! The head on this beer is insane! Froth galore. Classic porter taste, coffee vibe going, my only problem is that the post-porter bloating.

Oct 16, 2007 Updated: Jan 25, 2008Malt is the overpowering character in this beer. Beautiful dark brown with hints of red and a chocolate milk colored head with good retention. Dry malty flavor as opposed to the sweetness I am accustomed to. Not very heavy on the tongue and a little bit over-carbonated which is the only thing I can find wrong with this beer. Overall a fair Porter without the heaviness or sweetness that sets this style off for me.
