Commercial Description:
In the winter of 1996 we were inspired by an Irish tradition for a morning after 'corpse-reviver' - a splash of Port in your stout! The inspired blending of Rich Ruby Port with O'Hanlon's award-winning stout has created a unique and original masterpiece of craft brewing.

Aromas of wine rather than beer. Black body with a tan head. Lacing left on glass. Was little watery but alright on the palate

Poured black with a huge head and good lacing. Aroma is chocolate with hints of alcohol and roast. Light body with a good roast chocolate flavor with a small metalic taste on the finish. Not bad.

bottle. Dark nearly black color with a hint of claret color. A nice stout i thought, liked the sweet malt which was prob. sweetened up by the port. dryer finish. good looking beer altough the palate was slightly weak.

Deep black-purple with a rocky brown head. Toasty malt aroma with notes of coffee and fruit. The body begins with a semi-ripe plum sweetness before rounding out into a long dry coffe-like finish.

Bottle: Nice rocky head on a dark brown - red colored brew. Very nice nose with lots of coffee and tabacco in it. The same applies for the taste, lots of chocolate mixed with tabacco - very nice, though all in all kind of flat in texture.

Light roasted nose, dark opaque brown color, sea foam head. Some chocolate and toffee behind a deep roasted malt body. Some smoke comes through too. Charcoal, tobacco bitter end. Thin body and a crisp texture. Quite one dimensional and not really a good beer, but this is fun and enjoyable in the end. Take it for what it is.

Poured an attractive reddish brown with the most ridiculously thick head I’ve ever seen. The head settled into what looked like mountain ranges of foam. Aroma reminds me of a typical stout except for the tang of wine. Taste is frankly boring. These people didn’t take the time to brew a truly world class stout. They decided to brew a generic and thin stout beer and add the little bit of port necessary to make this beer unique. It doesn’t really work. Mediocre. I ended up pouring about half a shot of whiskey into the glass and it improved this beer a whole lot.

Deep garnet color; Soapy bubbles; aroma of old cigarette butts left in wine. Good mouthfeel. Good coffee notes. Don’t get much "port" though.
