Apr 3, 2002 Delicious porter -- bitter roasty aroma translates wonderfully into the taste -- it stays nicely on the tongue, and dissolves into a mild aftertaste. Deep brown with a pleasant creamy head.

Jul 3, 2007 Thank you Steve/Coldbrewky - or rather Barbara, who bought the beers for us :) It’s a pitch black beer with a reddish glow and a nice head. The aroma has nice roasted notes with chocolate and a touch of smoke. The flavour is light, but pleasant with notes of roasted malt, chocolate, a bit of coffee and a roasted bitterness that lasts quite long in the finish. 2352

Jul 8, 2004 Poured a medium copper/brown (lighter than I would expect from a porter - you could see through it) with a smaller tan head. Malty chocolate aroma. Really didn’t taste like too much. Light chocolate with a very light bitterness. Body was weak. I was not impressed at all with this beer.
