Pours an extremely deep brown nearly black with a fluffy light tan head. Aroma is rich roasted malts, nicely deep milk chocolate and bitter dark chocolate. There is a distinct dark fruitiness in there too, maybe some plum and cherry. Flavor is even better, very robust and complex malt character, a nice bitter lightly burnt note along with more chocolate, caramel, coffee and nuts. Just enough of a floral hop note to add a balancing effect. Nice mediumish creamy body and a soft carbonation. Really great porter, one of my favorites. dbarnold (42), Bethesda, Maryland, USA

Tons of roast and malt, little chocolate, etc. Very full flavor but without being heavy. Great stuff Travlr (982), Washington, Washington DC, USA

Opaque black with a large beige head that disappears quickly and leaves great lacing. Aroma of chocolate and roasted coffee. Taste begins with sweetness then turns slightly bitter and dry, and finally a finish of port wine. Interesting and complex. Mora2000 (370), Dallas, Texas, USA
| 3.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Jan 19, 2010 The beer pours dark brown with an off-white head. The aroma is basic porter, roasted malt with a little bit of coffee. The flavor is more of the same with roasted malt, chocolate and coffee. There are also some hops to stop the beer from being too sweet. Creamy mouthfeel. A very good porter. tarheels86 (918), Washington DC, USA
| 3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 11/20 | Jan 13, 2010 355mL. Pours a deep ruby with a cola-like fizzy head that dwindles to nothing. Aroma is dark chocolate, cocoa, some ash. Taste is sticky malt, some ash, pervading unsweetened chocolate bitterness. Dry on the palate. Fizzy carbonation. Lots of ashtray. craigo19 (3), Michigan, USA does not count | 4.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 5/5 | 9/10 | 5/5 | 20/20 | Jan 10, 2010 This has to be one of the best porters on the market. It has a smooth crisp taste.
