| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 4/5 | 14/20 | Jan 30, 2007 Quite dark brown; very little tan head. Aroma of chocolate, coffee, roast, caramel, and light vanilla. Flavor predominantly chocolate, coffee, and roast; moderately bitter, hoppy, roasty finish. Medium-thick and frothy; mildly sticky. This is a solid, if forgettable, above-average porter. Ughsmash (3999), Waukesha, Wisconsin, USA
| 3.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Jan 27, 2007 Bottled. Poured a clear, deep garnety/brown with a nice initial cap of tan head that receded to a fine film. Nose was nicely burnt with dark chocolate and medium roast coffee coming through. The flavor had a pleasant cold coffee base with grainy chocolate and burnt dark malts on top.. mild coffee bitterness. Not too complex, but an enjoyable drink. Just shy of medium-bodied. Not bad.. not great. Styles (1653), Lincoln Park, Michigan, USA
| 3.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Jan 15, 2007 Dark brown, no head. Sweet chocolate aroma, light coffee background. Flavor exactly on par with the aroma, tapers off in the finish to almost nothing. Body/mouthfeel rather thin and watary. Just average, rather bland porter. bgburdman9 (823), Columbus, Ohio, USA

Another fairly good brew from Southern Tier. Pretty much your standard definition of a porter with a few quirks and such. BuffaloBrewed (42), Buffalo, New York, USA
| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Dec 22, 2006 12oz. bottle. Poured a dark chocolate brown with a thick light tan head. The beer had a fairly sweet smell with note of licorice and roasted malts. There seems to be some fruit to the nose as well. The taste is malty and slightly bitter, but balanced. Good brew.
