3.2 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20
Not what I was hoping for. A little bit light bodied for me. Maybe they should use a little bit more Porter and a little less Lager.

Very average beer. Dark pour as you’d expect. Nose and taste is very malty, slight chocolate and bread. Rated 6/21/02

2.4 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 9/20
Typical for Americans...take something that requires work (pouring a B&T), and combine it in the same container "because it’s just as good that way." Well, this beer proves that theory to be seriously lacking. Weak stout does not equal black and tan.
2 AROMA 3/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 8/20
12oz - If I’m reaching for a stout this would not be it. Too sweet and no spine. It’s still a standout among macros.
2.9 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 11/20
Pours a medium brown. Light chocolate and a little coffee/caramel aroma. The flavor was rich and sweet. It is an average black and tan.

3.1 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 12/20
This was better then I expected, how is a mix labeled as a stout? weak for a stout, but not bad.
2.9 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20
I had one of these turn up in a box of beers that had been lost under the bed in a guest bedroom for 4 or 5 years. From a "Beers of the World" pack I think. It was much better than I expected, and probably not fair to rate with fresh samples. Haven’t been able to locate any more to compare so I’ll just look forward to rating again when I find it.
2.7 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 10/20
An average beer. Nice aroma of malt, some hops, and toffee. Finishes with a slightly sweet watery maltiness.
2.3 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 9/20
In my opinion, this was just bad, a drain pour if you will. I will never again by another bottled variation on smoething that is much better when I mix it up myself. Dark brown water, that is weak and bitter, and not in a good way. Malty and dissatisfying in the finish.
