May 30, 2009 As porters go, this is much more translucent than I think it should be. It has a very red hue, small to no head. The aroma is faint, any good malts, are drowned out by the raspberry sweetness. The flavor is nice and roasty, the raspberries taste a touch on the tart side, there are chocolate/cararmel roasted highlights. And ok Porter as porters go.... But probably one of the better ""FRUIT BEER""S I’ve had.

May 13, 2009 Pours a dark brown with a thin off white head. Aromas of raspberry, roasted malt, and a little chocolate. The flavor starts with the raspberries then goes a little into the roasted malts of chocolate. Semi sweet and bitter. An decent fruity porter. Would be an awesome brew if it had 4 times the ingredients for the porter and a little less on the raspberry but just enough to give it that fruity edge.

May 10, 2009 0.355 l bottle at Konttori, Tampere. Dark reddish color. Sweet strong raspberry aroma with hint of toasty and chocolatey malt in the background. Toasty and chocolatey flavor with firm bitterness and perfumed raspberry. The combination of bitterness and raspberry is somewhat weird and gives unpleasant finish. This could also be more porter like with more chocolate.

May 7, 2009 On tap at the Peekskill Brewery. Pours a just clear ruby brown with a thin tan head. Aromas are raspberry, raspberry, and more raspberry, bordering on artificial, but beyond that there is just a hint of hops. Thin to medium bodied, more raspberry comes through, but at least now is joined by some nice roast. Finishes with a light bitterness, and a very faint hint of roast. Interesting, sort of like a fruit brown ale.
