Brown color with light head. Roasted malt with faint coffee aroma. A light body with a little more coffee and chocolate flavors than I’d expect form a porter. Nice.

Oct 18, 2008 [Bottle] shared by skyview. Pours a clear dark brown with a moderate tan head. Very nice nose of bittersweet chocolate, sweet malt, and roasted malts. Flavor is bitter cocoa, a touch of whisky, and a touch chalky.

Oct 16, 2008 22oz Bottle Pours out a dark brown topped with a tan head. A nice aroma of malts and some sweetness. Tast more of the sweet roast. A very tasty brew.

Oct 11, 2008 Smooth pour reveals a creamy raisiny rummy head atop a dark body. Muted nose with slight chocolate notes popping out. All the usual flavour suspects are present and accounted for here: chocolate, malts, roasted barley; with an especially dry finish. As a Porter, it gets the job done; as a truly outstanding brew, she’s not there yet. Not one of the greats, but pretty damn good.
