2007 bottle. Poured jet black with thin tan head. Smelled of smoky and dark chocolate, and taste starts bitter chocolate and moves into sweeter with the dark fruit. Very good porter!

Great beer. Very dark pour with a small head. Tastes of a little coffee and chocolate.

chocolate with a deep sweetness and touch of vanilla. dried fruits evident with a hint of almond. busy beer makes it seem thicker than it is but this is only somewhat thicke in the palate. deep flavor overall this brew lingers and reveals some roastiness. some earth and a frothy and lasting head. you get what you pay for.....sometimes.

Bottle. 22 oz. Split with Sean. Pours rich chicory brown, almost opaque with a thick, frothy amber head. Aroma of chocolate, brown sugar, toffee, barley, roasted malts, and hints of clove. Awesome body; coca-cola complexity and a crisp, yet slowly smooth finish. Hands down, best porter I have ever tasted. Absolutely excellent.

(bottle - 500 ml) Dark black pour with a creamy tan head. Aroma is heavy roasted malts with a lot of coffee aroma as well. Flavor begins with a roasted and slightly sweet malt taste that goes smoothly to a roasted and burnt malt/coffee middle. Finishes strong with a heavy roast and bitter note. Hops are subdued and the body is smooth and silky. Aftertaste is bitter and lingers for a bit. Nice porter.

Sweet bitter taste of choclate, coffee, dried fruit. And a aftertaste of burned caramel. Beautiful aroma of coffee and sugar. Lovely design and appearance.

Dark mahogany pour with tan head. Aroma of alcohol and chocolate malt. Tastes of chocolate and caramel malt with vanilla, roasted bitterness on the finish. Great creamy mouthfeel.

Dark brown with a small ligth brown head. Aroma is of light roasted malt, toffe and light caramell with small hoppy notes. Flavour is rather full, very smooth and round with light roasted chocolatey malt, creamy caramell and light hops proper for the style. Smooth bodied and slightly creamy. A very solid porter.
