legion242 (1516), Richardson, Texas, USA Jul 18, 2002 Cola colored; Head was thin and unimpressive; Nose of fresh roasted coffee beans. Very nice full roasted flavors shining through. Teh nose follows right through to the mouth- I can’t believe that I like this so much better then everyone else- although, it is f-ing ridiculous that the Beer/Month Club would send a porter in JUNE!!! burgerlicious (308), Indianapolis, Indiana, USA Aug 19, 2004 I do like porters, and this one is no exception, though it’s not exceptional either. much like the lable, it’s a bit generic. however, nursing a few next to a campfire on the shores of lake michigan is not a bad time at all. crizay (1070), Brook Park (was Tampa,FL), Ohio, USA Feb 25, 2006 Courtesy of Degarth.
Pours black with thin beige head. Dark chocolate, roasted malt, aftertaste is sweet chocolate and very creamy, a great standard porter. argo0 (6145), Washington DC, USA May 29, 2006 (12oz bottle) Big brown head atop a brown-black body. Aroma is moderately sweet, chocolate, roast, coffee, light anise, burnt. Taste is moderately sweet, roast, chococoffee, light smoke. Creamy medium body, quite a robust porter. tourette (183), San Francisco, California, USA Sep 3, 2002 This is a very good porter, in my opinion. Nose of roasted coffee beans. Taste of chocolate and coffee. Rich and roasty. Maybe a little thin, but not bad.
