Mar 19, 2006 A dark, chocolatey brown-red beer with a weak white head. A light toasty nose with hints of malt and hops. Sweet caramel and a slightly toffee finish. The taste is dry, bitter with the toasted malt element again and caramel, toffee sweetness. The finish is dry and bitter sweet. (Draught - @ the Norwich Beer Festival 2004).

Mar 18, 2006 Pours jet black with a light tan head, very pleasing to look at. Nice mild body with a very satisfying flavor. A distinct nuttiness and a crisp dry finish complement tastes of chocolate, coffee, and dark fruits. Overall, a fantastic porter.

Mar 11, 2006 Bottle. Pours a cloudy dark reddish-brown with a large lasting foamy light-brown head. Aroma of roasted malt, fruit, chocolate, nuts and a touch of coffee. Flavour of roasted malt, mild chocolate, some wood and a light bitter dry finish. Body’s a little thin. Pretty good, I enjoyed it.
