Very dark brown pour with mahogany highlights and fading light tan head. Great nutty aroma with chocolate and toffee. Flavor is nice and roasty, slight metallic twinge, and some diacetyl. Lingering roast bitterness. Overall, a pretty good porter. pinkzambia (989), Boise, Idaho, USA

I tasted a little sweetness with the typical roasted, charcoal flavors of a porter. Nice feel. Svesse (2686), Hässelby, Sweden
| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 14/20 | Apr 16, 2008 (Bottle, Monk’s Café, Stockholm, 14 April 2008) Dark brown colour with frothy, pale brown head. Malty nose with hazelnuts and chocolate. Malty, nutty taste with notes of hazelnuts, chocolate and a decent cocoa bitterness in the finish. Not really complex but the nicely balanced hazelnut touch makes it quite enjoyable. Ibrew2or3 (2848), Safety Harbor, Florida, USA
| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 14/20 | Apr 24, 2008 On Cask at Oldsmar Tap House. Pours up deep dark brown with infra red edges and firm lasting tan head. The aroma is mild with roastiness, faint caramel, faint burnt malts and a touch of oxidation. The taste is similar with roasted to burnt malts, mild oxidation and mild chocolate malt goodness. The finish the beer becomes toastier and roasty. Nice roasty offering. A bit on the bold side for a Porter which is to my liking. Blackbarrel (116), new york, New York, USA
