| 3.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 2/5 | 13/20 | Aug 19, 2006 A strong aroma with coffee aromas and a coffee flavoring. The palate suffers from a stale consistency; the beer doesn’t differ in taste to finish. High carbonation, seems to mask some flavors. Nice little head and strong ruby black colouring.

| 2.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Jul 31, 2006 Dark brown with whiffing soda pop aroma. Medium mouthfeel, about at expiry date or a bit past. No head, no lace. Soda pop and beer.Overcarbonated. A reasonable though too sweet beverage on a hot summer night.

| 2.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 5/10 | 2/5 | 11/20 | Jul 24, 2006 Very dark brown with a foamy beige head. Light hazelnuts, coffee and caramel corn aromas. Sweet dark caramel flavors, mix with a mild hazelnut extract taste. Cobbler and coffee. Hints of dark chocolate and mild dark caramel. Decent flavors that don;t meld well and make things interesting. heemer77 (4303), Savannah, Missouri, USA
| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Jul 11, 2006 A very light tan head covers the dark brown body with ruby highlights. Teh aroma has some rich choclate with a hint of sweetened coffee. I can barely detect the hazel nuts. The taste has a bit of coffee with warm peaches. There is also a nutty finish. The mouthfeel is slick and creamy. This is a little sweet for my tastes in porters, but anyone that likes sweetened coffee should enjoy this one. GregClow (2495), Toronto, Ontario, Canada
| 2.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 3/5 | 4/10 | 2/5 | 10/20 | Jun 21, 2006 Bottle shared with HogTownHarry - his bottle. Ruby-brown with a tiny an head. Nutty mocha aroma, a bit roasty - like a fake flavoured coffee. Thin, fizzy body. Flavour is a bit metallic and sour, with more artificial nut flavour. Really mediocre. I gotta wonder if we got an old/bad botle... HogTownHarry (3993), Toronto (Harbourfront), Ontario, Canada
| 2.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 2/5 | 5/10 | 2/5 | 11/20 | Jun 16, 2006 Bottle (12oz). Shared with GregClow, my bottle. Deep cola-ruby with a small diminishing beige head. Dry, oily roasty aroma - plenty of nutshell and burnt toast, hints of coffee and scorched nutella. Taste of acrid coffee grounds, fake nut flavouring (again the nutella) - it’s roasty, but not very authentic. Weak bodied, dry and acidic, kind of a nasty bitter/chemical/syrupy aftertaste - how does this rate much above a 3? Really not very good at all. GonZoBeeR (2160), ste-Eulalie, Quebec, Canada
