Flavours are carried over from the nose. Quite dry with a trace of smoke. Chocolate, coffee, some licorice, and a berry like tart. Some iron/blood. Plenty of character. Nice beer.

Coffee flavour with light chocolate and nut hint of bitterness in the finish.
Not bad. mgermani (871), Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada
| 3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 2/5 | 6/10 | 2/5 | 12/20 | May 4, 2008 Pours black with a brief tan head and a very nice graham-cracker aroma with notes of prunes and dates - wow! Tastes ash-like, light roastiness, slightly bland. Thin body with low carb. I’m a bit nonplussed with this "plain" porter after the build-up of the lovely aroma. Still, many thanks to Robinvboyer for the trade! Acknud (794), Morganfield, Kentucky, USA
| 2.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 3/5 | 4/10 | 2/5 | 8/20 | Dec 28, 2007 Not much on this one. Left a bad bitter taste in my mouth. Color and aroma was good but I just couldn’t do the aftertaste. DerWeg (783), Toronto, Ontario, Canada

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 TheJester (747), Peterborough, Ontario, Canada
| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Sep 26, 2007 341 mL stubby. Deep, dark mahogany brown; almost black. Small brown head that fades to a film within minutes. Aroma is roast, bittersweet chocolate, burnt toast. Flavour is not as full (or as sweet) as expected from the aroma, but is solid nonetheless: cocoa, coffee grounds, walnuts, and some roasted malt bitterness. Body is actually a little thin. Nice winter session beer. Would love to try this on tap. shintriad (698), Toronto, Ontario, Canada
| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 5/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | May 18, 2006 Beautiful dark brown with a small but frothy maple head. Chocolate, roasted malts in the nose, followed by a nutty, smoky (charcoal), dark-chocolate flavour with hint of soy sauce. Dry, a bit sour in its very long finish. Nice stuff! wnp22 (682), Toronto (Roncesvalles Village), Ontario, Canada
