| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 16/20 | 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. LilKem (1210), Marietta, Ohio, USA

| 3.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | 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. footbalm (1218), Salt Lake City, Utah, USA

| 2.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 5/5 | 3/10 | 3/5 | 8/20 | May 10, 2006 For me it was a normal porter. Maybe more like a stoudt but thick with chocolate malts and cofee tones. Sammy (3977), Toronto, Ontario, Canada

| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Apr 6, 2006 This isn’t extroadinary but its satisfying with its smokey ember hop flavor and dry finish. The body isn’t as prevalent as with other porters which have that slippery mouthfeel. SledgeJr (2960), Omaha, Nebraska, USA
| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 4/5 | 14/20 | Mar 29, 2006 In the bottle. Thanks to Springslicker for the beer! Pours coal-black with a reddish hue in the direct light. Dark tan fluffy rich head. The aroma is chocolate and floral (?!). The flavor is smokey and roasted. Seems like the gratuitous body is milky. Sweetness is present, but the tartness of the hops balances this sweetness well. The finish is quick and mild leaving you with a very satisfying beer. Thanks Springslicker!
