Samuel Smiths Taddy Porter

Pours a deep black with a caramel head. The aroma is extremely sweet with hints of chocolate, coffee, toffee and roasted malt. Very sweet brew. The taste is extremely malt, with a chocolate backbone. A very solid porter.

Black pour with thick creamy tan head leaving plenty of lacing. Aromas of licorice, chocolate, and coffee. Brown sugar, soy sauce, cream, and baker’s chocolate in the flavor. Very enjoyable porter.

Too bad, I just missed being the 1000th rater of this brew. One of the ones from back in the dark ages. Dark brown black with ruby and mahogany highlights. Aroma of caramel and toffee, faint roast. Flavor is nutty, caramel, and chocolate. OK mouthfeel. Nice.

Aroma is a rich sweet wine like scent. Color is a solid black with a thin some what tight head. Taste is sweet and roasted. Starting with full body it goes down with a crisp feel. Finish comes out of the crispness with a thin sweet honey like flavor backed by a mild hop flavor and genteel bitterness. The after taste is sweet with a slight alcohol feel. Its not the best Porter I have ever had but its a tasty brew.

An old favorite for me. Smooth and creamy. Nice head. Very dark, with a rich flavor. Highly recommended.

It poured a very dark brown almost black in color with a thin brown head that faded to a thin 1/8 inch. The beer had a nice aroma of licorice and a little alcohol. Strange for only a 5%. The taste was very mild and not very distinctive. I got a bit of a sour citrus finish with some subtle flavor of licorice. I wonder if I got a bad bottle. I’ll try another bottle to see for sure.

12 ounce bottle purchased at Total Wine Fort Lauderdale, FL at $2.29 Very good

Pours dark brown with a red tint and a tan head. Smells of chocolate, licorice, some roastiness. Tastes slightly tarte with some cherry touches, licorice, chocolate, caramel, hints of bitterness. Mouthfeel is thick with a nice malty finish.
