3.8 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 16/20
Purchased at Tesco store in London, UK. Also tasted at the Meantime brewery pub, as well as buying a bottle from LCBO ( I think it was just a seasonal special ) in Canada. Good porter, bit pricey at the brewery but nice part of town to visit.

750ml bottle. Pours a dark, dark chestnut brown with a beige coloured head. Aroma is big on both cocoa, and biscuity cereal notes with coffee grounds, faint straw, and mild vanilla. The taste is mostly coffee, light molasses, dark malt notes, and lots of coffee notes with some bitterness in the finish. Solid.

This porter poured a deep black colour with a creamy, tan coloured head. Nice lacing. Scents include plastic, malt, small amount of coffee and cocoa. First swig was nice and roasty with other flavours of coffee, light hops and very little cocoa. Finish is roasted as it gets...

3.7 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 14/20
Bottle: Poured a deep black color porter with a large brown foamy head with good retention and some lacing. Aroma consists of floral coffee notes with some dry and lightly bitter roasted malt and some subtle dark chocolate notes. Taste is also dominated by some floral coffee notes and some subtle black chocolate notes with some dry roasted malt notes also playing a major role. Light residual sugar can also be detected with no astringency and good balance overall. Body is average with good carbonation and no apparent alcohol. Solid rendition of the style with good balance overall.
2.9 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 11/20
It pours deep dark brown almost opaque with ruby highlights; the head is beige and foamy. The aroma has notes of: chocolate, toast, caramel, and roasted malts. The taste is light bitter; there are notes of: toast, coffee, and roasted malts. The palate is light bodied, watery, has medium carbonation, and a medium finish. Overall, very weak flavour and body - far too watery.
3.5 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 14/20
750ml corked bottle pours reddish-black in color with a finger and a half of off-white head that leaves only some spotted lacing on the glass. Aroma is light roasted grains and chocolate. Taste is a roasted grain bitterness with a chocolate malty sweetness. Light to medium bodied with decent carbonation. A nicely done brew for the style, but a little thin in the body.
