DocHop (165), College Park, Maryland, USA May 10, 2008 Perfect copper/dark amber color with a very thick and full khaki head. Awesome aroma of chocolate malts, a mild roastiness that gives the impression of a sweet coffee. Nice medium body, not too thick. Sweetness really comes through with the initial taste, the finish is what draws out the smooth roasted quality along with the unique porteresque hop flavor.
SETANTA (552), Allentown, Pennsylvania, USA Jul 2, 2008 Pours a very dark brown with some ruby highlights if held up to the light. Little head, and the aroma is mostly chocolate and coffee, more so chocolate. Taste is leaning more towards the coffee though. Very similar to a coffee or oatmeal stout in my opinion, but it’s very enjoyable and does not disappoint. Beerman6686 (504), Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, USA Jul 2, 2008 Pours a very very dark brown color with a thin tan head. Aroma is of roasted malts, coffee,and some smoke. Flavor is very roasted and coffee but not too bitter, very good porter. azlondon (456), Greater London, England Jul 1, 2008 Appearance: Very dark brown. Nice amount of tan head.
Aroma: Coffee, smoke and dark malt. Hint of chocolate.
Taste: Again, smoke and coffee. Malty.
Info: 500ml bottle, 15/4-2008 AdamSkillin (356), High Bridge, New Jersey, USA Jul 1, 2008 I love porters and I love this beer. It is robust, perfect amount of bitterness to balance the sweet maltiness, huge flavor at small alcohol. A little expensive (I paid almost $12 for a 6-pack the other day!) Ramenen (296), San Salvador, El Salvador Jun 30, 2008 Thanks to ghawener. Drank it during the Eurocup Final 2008. Wow, I had it in my beer watchlist. Pours a nice dark brown, almost black color with a tan head. Medium bodied, perfectly balanced with the caramel malts and the smokiness.
