Poured a very dark brown, like your usual porter, with only a slight head. Smells like a fresh pot of coffee :-) loved it. Finish with a bit of a wood flavor. This is a really good porter.

ketchepillar (874) - Albuquerque, New Mexico, USA - JAN 31, 2008
Gushed quite a bit when opened making me nervous. Beautiful beer. Charred, cherry, apples, woody alcohol. Very smooth, but almost a little too flat for my tastes, which is saying a lot, or perhaps it just seems so b/c it’s a little thin. Leaves a little bitter tingle on the front of the tongue. Lengthy, evolving finish.

TrefwoordPunk (652) - Leiden, NETHERLANDS - JAN 22, 2008
Bottle 50 cl. Pours completely black with a small tan head and a coffee-like roasted aroma. The taste is more like mocca than espresso, very roasted and not really smooth, but in a good way. A bit sweet, with a long bitter finish. Good, but not groundbreaking

treadyroc (146) - St. Leonard, Maryland, USA - JAN 19, 2008
Pours very dark w/almost a ruby tint to the top. No noticeable aroma to speak of, but finishes cleaner than say a Gonzo. Not as thick, either; a much more even palate. Just a hint of sweet at the end.

barleyPops (1136) - Quad-Cities, Illinois, USA - JAN 13, 2008
Pours a deep dark brown, near black, with little head and wisps of khaki lace. Aroma is chocolate, coffee and some roasted malts. Flavor is more of the same, but skewed a bit more towards the coffee and roast rather than the chocolate. A little on the thin side, but easy drinking and enjoyable.

Cryotek (206) - Pawtucket, Rhode Island, USA - JAN 12, 2008
Black color with not much of a head. Very roasty burnt initial smell. Tastes very toasty, cappachino, coco, roasted malt. Light medium body, sweeter finish then start. A very nice porter.

Palidor19 (2296) - Brandon, Florida, USA - JAN 9, 2008
its quite thin, Their is a certain amount of coffee and cocoa but the rest flavor seems kinda of weak and watery. Still tasty enough,

nick76 (3461) - Tampa, Florida, USA - JAN 9, 2008
The aroma has chocolate, toasted malt, and milk. The appearance is dark brown with a tan head. The flavor is like the aroma. The palate is smooth. Overall it’s pretty good.
