Dec 26, 2008 Updated: Jun 22, 2009Aroma is filled with coffee and chocolate. The color is dark brown, with a small head that disipates quickly, the body is moerate and is well balanced between the coffee and chocolate malts, very smooth with a slight aftertaste of coffee. Not overpowering at all.

Aroma very much coffee and hints of chocolate. Very smooth and creamy coffee flavour with some roasted malts. It is very pleasant even if I do not like coffee. Excellent porter.

Dec 20, 2008 Can. Pours a nice dark brown with a creamy lasting forever head. The aroma is a nice mix of English Malts, chocolate, and nutty. Chocolate, English malts, sweetness, and roasted nuts. Some lingering medium sweet chocolate. Creamy and smooth. Incredibly drinkable. I could drink this all the time, everyday, with every meal. Like water.

Dec 17, 2008 500mL Bottle as i the picture. Dark almost black Porter. Malty aroma, definately chocolate detected. Very smooth and creamy in the mouth, initial taste of mixed malts, with the chocolate the lingering and dominate one. Sweet finish. Not nearly complex enough to be one of the better Porters.
