3/18/2013 Coffee, Mold (that’s sounds bad, but it’s a good smell) 8 Dark black appearance. Small head. 4 Chocolate, toasted malt. Smooth. 8 A bit dry. 4 A really nice beer. A classic. Bold enough to be tasty and interesting; light enough to drink easy. Wins the side by side comparison against Sam Smith Taddy Porter. 16

StoutHead (231) - DENMARK - APR 6, 2013
Bottle. Pours a deep red, almost black color, with a fizzy light-brown head. Aroma of roasted malt, chocolate and what seems to be a hint of citrus. Taste is like the aroma with a smoky and bitter aftertaste. Medium body. Surprisingly good...considering what I expected. ;-)

Muy buena, con toques a café. Lo que reza en su eslogan es cierto: además del café, notas otros matices como esos toques de chocolate negro. El trago bien puede durar lo suyo y disfrutarla despacio. Notabilísima relación precio/calidad. Excelente equilibrio: nada de extremos.

Barreras (608) - Diamond Bar, California, USA - MAR 29, 2013
Pours a deep brown color with a roasted almond coco aroma. Taste is chocolaty with a quick dissipating aftertaste. A slight bitter aftertaste that is surprising for a porter. Overall a decent beer especially for the style.

VincentDamon (149) - Québec, Quebec, CANADA - MAR 27, 2013
Belle robe noire et foncée, de même qu’un collet généreux beige. Porter à 5.4% d’alcool qui offre un nez de chocolat sucré avec des pointes subtiles de café torréfié. En bouche, le goût du café prend plus de place, mais le chocolat demeure. La bière est crémeuse, juste assez effervescente. Elle descend vraiment bien, comme on dit. Riche et complexe, cette bière me semble équilibrée. Bonne manière de s’initier aux noires : peu d’amertume et beaucoup de place aux arômes chocolatés : pointes de mélasse et légère acidité au palais, mais rien de dérangeant, au contraire. S’apparente beaucoup à une stout irlandaise, à mon avis. Cheers!

Pours a very dark brown with a beige head. Aroma of coffee and roasted malt. Taste is similar with roasted malt and coffee and chocolate and bitterness on the end. Very smooth and satisfying drink.

Jcarb28 (69) - Pico Rivera, California, USA - MAR 25, 2013
Dark and thick on the pour win a small frothy head. Rich smokey chocolate scent and flavors with a nice smooth hint of coffee on the palate. This porter was med-full bod.
