| 3.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 17/20 | May 23, 2006 Very dark brown almost black pour with a nice mocha creamy head. The aroma is roast and chocolate. The flavor is very well blended smooth dark malt and roast. The acid is slight and the sweetness counteracts it. A very nice porter. If this was common in the 1750, those folks were lucky. harlequinn (2745), Tacoma, Washington, USA
| 3.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | May 16, 2006 This is a very smooth and gentle porter, nice mouthfeel with just the right levels of carbonation and roasted acidity. Semi sweet chocolate and creamy coffee, a little bit of sweet fruitiness comes through as it warms, not overly complex, but worth trying. thedm (3834), Fort Wayne, Indiana, USA
| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 5/5 | 6/10 | 4/5 | 12/20 | May 16, 2006 This corked and caged bottled brew poured a large sized head of foam under a frothy top of fine to large sized mostly lasting light brown colored bubbles that left behind a semi-transparent dark ruby red brown colored softly carbonated body. The aroma was mild with sweet dark malty notes. The mouth feel was smooth initially and tingly in the finish with a mild sweet mild hop aftertaste. The flavor was thin with malty slightly hoppy mild dark malt notes. harrisoni (6771), Ashford, Kent, England
