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.

What the . . . ?!?!? I love stout. I love port. This should have been a pleasure. Wasn’t. Started good with a beautiful garnet color and tan head. Aroma was faintly of port, some chocolate, cherries, floral. Still, it wasn’t an inviting or potent aroma. Medium body and a sweet taste that was not in the least appealing. A big disappointment.

Pours a thick black with a frothy light tan head which, surprisingly, is lasting. Aroma is primarily sweet chocolate, coffee and cherries. Taste is pretty agressive. Probably one of the more "in your face" stouts that I have had, most likely due to the port wine. Coffee, dried fruit, dash of hops, and a slightly odd sourness which I again, attribute to the port. Not an excellent stout, but above average. Points for being unique, and a great appearance.

Bottle. Poured a large sized frothy tan head with fine-small sized bubbles that mostly diminished. No carbonation observed, opaque and black hue. Malty, burnt, coffee, some chocolate, and roasty aroma. Roasty coffee flavor. Smooth and dry mouthfeel. Medium-full bodied stout with good lacing. Recommended.

Medium bodied stout with fruit, a touch of coffee and a little bit sweet. I guess thats where the port comes in. A little bit $$ but worth it

This bottled brew poured a large sized head of frothy foamy finely sized light brown colored beautiful bubbles that left behind a most pretty lacing. Been a long time since I saw a lacing that nice! The body was opaque black with no hope of visible carbonation! Excellent body! The aroma was a bit on the mild side, but very nice with strong malt coffee and mild chocolate scents mixed in with a few good roasted notes. The mouth feel was thick smooth and very heavy with malt and a lingering coffee malt finish. Scrumptious! The flavor contained notes of coffee malt hops chocolate and roasted nuts. Delicious.

Wow. Rarely do you ever see a stout with this much head. Great big light tan head with great lacing. Roasted aroma with grapes and other fruit. Color is a very dark red/brown. Medium bodied stout with fruit, a touch of coffee and a little sweet. Finish is dry and slightly bitter. A decent stout.

Dark amber, small brown head. Has a spicy and quite strong aroma, somewhat fruity. Flavor is spicy and fruity, and the finish is a little weak.
