| 2.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 2/5 | 5/10 | 4/5 | 9/20 | Dec 15, 2007 Draft at Capones. Aroma is prodominantly rapsberries. As is the flavor.

| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 16/20 | Dec 14, 2007 On draft at Capones. Didn’t think I would like this, especially since I’m not a fan of fruit beer, but it was better than I expected. Raspberroes are there, obviously, but also some chocolate to it. Would drink again. michael-pollack (2653), King of Prussia, Pennsylvania, USA

| 2.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 2/5 | 6/10 | 2/5 | 11/20 | Dec 11, 2007 Bottle courtesy of HogTownHarry. Pours a somewhat flat-looking clear orange-copper with a small quickly diminishing off-white head. Aroma is predominantly artificial sweet raspberry along with a bit of caramel malt and not much else. Slightly watery flavour of raspberries and light malt. Average bodied. Why is this called a Porter? It smells and tastes like a Fruit beer and has no Porter characteristics. Lame. Darkover (1312), Columbus, Ohio, USA
| 3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Dec 10, 2007 Dark ruby color with a small beige head. Raspberry aroma. Flavor of raspberries, malt and some roast. Braudog (3752), Dayton, Ohio, USA
| 3.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 3/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Dec 9, 2007 Bottle: The red-tinged beer has a thin tan head. The aroma is stellar ... berries and chocolate, I can’t wait! Likewise, this drinks like a dessert tray ... the namesake raspberry is definitely there, with a well-balanced aspect with the chocolate maltiness of the beer. Like several beers here that are grossly underrated, this is a delicious brew. I love it. (#3242, 12/9/2007)
