UPDATED: JUN 15, 2004 Chocolaty malts with prominent sweetness throughout. Very lite hop character. Almost candy-like. Small tan head tops a dark chestnut body. Robist roasty character mixes with sweet maltiness at swallow.

2.4 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 6/20 Eyedrinkale (3214) - Astoria, New York, USA - FEB 9, 2004
Huge fizzy head with a sweet candy aroma. Sweet caramel taste. Not enough hoppiness to balance it out to make it a really good porter.

Cranberry black color with a thick ass layer of dirty white head. Faint sweet chocolate malts in the aroma that increase with time. Bland boring chocolate malts up front, and it seems like those chocolates begin to melt as it warms, also some bitterness up front.

nightly yet transparent color with hidden ruby highlights all under a thick bubbley sky..a sugary candy-like aroma getting dusty, musty, and even shows sticky signs of peanut butter and coffee soaked cardboard...a surprisingly thick mouthfeel exhibiting a nice yet subtle caramel flavor accompanied by slight but pleasant hoppy tones and candy-like malts...mild, refreshing, and even hinting at some hazelnut.
3.2 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20 tidiaguy (168) - Hawley, Pennsylvania, USA - JAN 28, 2004
Very dark brown, near opaque, with a rather large fizzy light brown head. Almost resembles a cola. A mild slightly soapy, roasted malt aroma that has a bit of dark chocolate in it. A moderate roasted malt flavor with a fair bitterness in the finish. A tad thin in the body, but over all not a bad porter.

wow...a good looking dark, almost black looking brew with brownish head. tasted of a good mix of chocolate, toffee/coffee and nuts. it's a little watery but overall, this is a pretty good porter!
