| 4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 5/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | Aug 1, 2006 On Tap -- Jet Black, nice fire roasted maltiness and a slight touch of cafe au lait. Some well rounded powedered chocolate notes give the beer a nice smooth creaminess that can’t be beat. A Fine example of a Porter and probably the best Canadian example of the style.

This is an elegant, full tasting and highly quaffable beer with much less astringency than I remember on draught. Beautiful tones of toffee and cocoa, Perry has really fine-tuned a beer that is now perfectly delicious . + One point each category and overall - nice feeling palate! -------- ORIG RATING: Very roasty bitterness, solid dark colour, almost like a bitter stout. Enjoyable. Tap at ?C’est What? Toronto, King & Front area. 3.5 out of 5 blankboy (3204), Toronto, Ontario, Canada
| 3.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Apr 18, 2006 On tap at Bar Volo. Pours a deep dark brown, almost black, with a good size semi-lasting creamy tan head. Dry aroma of roasted coffee, roasted malt with a touch of chocolate and hops -- very roasty! Flavour of coffee or espresso and roasted malt and chocolate with a very dry slightly hoppy finish. Creamy mouthfeel and nice full body, especially for a Porter on tap. Another great beer from Scotch Irish!
