Mar 29, 2008 Had this one bottled in St. Charles, Illinois; thanks Jim! Opaque, dark brown pour with a thick and foamy dark tan head, nice coffee and nutty nose; bitter chocolate and nuts continue into the flavor. Finish is dry and alcoholic. Very good.

Mar 26, 2008 Pours deep brown/red with a small off-white head. Aroma is of molasses, caramel, and sweet fruits. Flavor is similar; sweet and with a hint of chocolate and cocoa. A bit thinner than I had hoped, but overall very nice.

Mar 24, 2008 Pours dark with a small foamy head, sort of a sweet smell. Tastes better than it smells with tastes of biscuit and toffee and hints of a smokey flavor. Light on the palate, thought a bit watery for my tastes as far as a porter goes. Not a bad beer.

Mar 20, 2008 Pours nearly black with a one-finger tan head. The aroma is light, slightly sweet malt in the nose. The flavor is complex, a wonderfully creamy roastiness with just a bit of sourness in the finish. The finish lasts in complex layers. Nice, nice beer.
