Jul 20, 2006 Black body with a small dark tan head. Sweet cocoa and ever so slightly sour chocolate milk aroma. Dry yet sweet malt flavour hints at some roast that doesn’t actually materialize. Muted notes of very dark chocolate. Palate is just slightly oily and pleasantly thicker than average (3+). Solid, but not mind blowing, this one strikes me as a good candidate for draft re-rate if the opportunity arises.

Jul 13, 2006 Draft at Coles in Buffalo. Thanks Rudolf for recommending this. Aroma of tiramisu, hazelnut, and chocolate syrup. Flavor of mild roast coffee, dark roast malt, and vanilla. Finish has nice pleasant peppery hop and roasty flavors in the finish. A fine session porter.I would gladly drink this again

Jul 12, 2006 Pours a dark brown/black color with a very thin tan head. Aroma is of sweet malts, chocolate, caramel, coffee, and a hint of dark fruits. Flavor is of roasted malts, chocolate, and coffee at first. Finishes with a slight hint of hops to finish up. A pretty decent porter but I like their hoppy beers much better.

Jun 1, 2006 Pours dark brown with a medium tan head. Good head retention and creaminess. Hints of coffee, roasted chocolate and piney hops were in the aroma. Taste was quite smooth except for the smoky taste at the end which got a little bitter. Good Porter which I would certainly have again.

May 22, 2006 Thanks for jayme(Jim) for this one. Has a definite nose of toasty malts with a bit of chocolate cake. I sat down and drank this in about 5 minutes. This is a nice Porter.

May 10, 2006 For me it was a normal porter. Maybe more like a stoudt but thick with chocolate malts and cofee tones.
