May 21, 2005 My cousing pulled this out of his refridgerator before dinner. Nice surprise! Poors black, not much head but this wasn’t served in ideal conditions. Semi-thick body with a lot of roasted malt in the flavor. Some chocolate, a little bitterness. A very good, solid porter.

Medium body with a roasty coffee flavor.
This is a very good easy drinking porterand not watery like a lot of them.

May 4, 2005 Malty aroma, like if you were drinking a whine instead of beer. Black with cream style head that left good lacing on glass. Smooth roasted flavor that was rich enough on the palate. Good beer.

May 1, 2005 From the flask-looking bottle this smooth porter pours red/brown with a light tan head. A rich chocolate nose and roasty malts give the sweet flavor that follows through in the taste, balanced nicely with a light hopping in the finish.

Apr 28, 2005 Bottle: Roasted coffee, chocolate, light nuttiness, and lighter wood aroma. Pours a dark brown with red hilights. Chocolate, lightly roasted coffee, and lightly nutty. LIght bitterness in the finish with some coffee. Kind of a porter and brown ale combination.

Apr 8, 2005 Heavy, ultra sweet caramel, nut, and honey nose. Deep dark, ruby red with a very thin head and trace lacing. Very flat, very sweet and malty. Zero carbonation. Syrupy. Slightly astringent flavor - not necessarily bad but just enough to remind you of the alcohol. A decent porter offering overall, though I don’t know that I’d go out of my way to find it again.

Mar 27, 2005 I thought this was a good standard of an average typical porter. Quickly diminishing head. Dark clear, but somewhat thin pour. The bottle was just neat. It was aparently developed in 1770. Nutty aroma with a slightly astringint flavor. Malty yet slightly burnt flavor. Nothing extreme, but just a good porter specimin.

Mar 26, 2005 Somewhat transparent reddish-brown body, small tan head, anise and sweet molasses in the nose with a touch of smoke. Slightly salty, slighty smoky, sweet with bitterness, a little burnt. Decent.
