Scauca (237), Lovere, Italy Mar 31, 2008 Dark brown beer with a nice creamy head. Mellow aromas, balanced flavours. Well brewed but there’s far better out there.
kseecs16 (533), Westmont, Illinois, USA Aug 26, 2008 Bottle. Poured a clear reddish brown with a foamy cola like persistent tan head. Aroma is roasted malt and chocolatey but light and bland. Flavor is a light roast, fairly dry with a hinted at sweetness. Seems like more of a toasted brown ale. Light mouth feel. drjay44 (115), USA Aug 21, 2008 12 oz. bottle. Pours anice tan head, which thins rapidly, good lacing, lovely dark brown color, nose with smoke, molasses cocoa, tastes similar, minimal hop bitterness, very nice mouthfeel throughout, a very nice porter. hop_lover (114), Corpus Christi, Texas, USA Aug 20, 2008 Black Jack pours an almost black brown color. With a very fleeting off white head. Smoky aroma notes dominate. The flavor is smoky with a little spiciness from the hops. The beer is so smooth all the way through. Feels medium bodied. A pretty good porter indeed. jkaiser (74), USA Aug 20, 2008 This porter has a chocolate cocoa malt aroma. Lite bitterness from the hops gives way to sweet roasted chocolate malt flavor. I think they played this one too close to the vest. Not much of a screamer. Good for a meet and greet, not for doing the business. texasbartender (151), Sugarland, Texas, USA Aug 17, 2008 beer pours a water black witha thin head that doesn’t stay for the party. the nose is sweet roasted coffe and sugar with malts at the end the taste is sweetned coffe and tosted malts. the finisg has a little bite.
