22oz bomber. Opaque pitch black color. Mellow roasted malt aroma. This is a hell of a beer. Big and full bodied, with a sugary sweet finish. The ABV is reminiscent of an Imperial Stout, but the taste is all porter. Well done. Creamy and quite drinkable. A quality beer.

Jul 17, 2008 Another thanks to The_Epeeist for bringing me a bomber of this. Pours deep brown with a medium creamy head. Nice lacing. Aroma of espresso, roasted malts and toffee. Rich coffee taste that’s a little bit sweet with the toffee, but very nice overall.
I’m assuming that much of the toffee sweetness is from the rapadou. It’s definitely something to try.

Jul 4, 2008 Heavy coffee like roastedness, and an odd burnt something,like charred sugar, taste is burnt coffee and dark caramel,finished by a smooth and bitter light sweetness,alcohol well hidden, strange combination, coffee grounds taste more burnt then roasted, you certainly notice that strange sugar used,still very enjoyable
Thanks Kingpin

Jun 22, 2008 Amazing. Wehn I was at the brewery I asked about the brewmaster’s reservse and this one sounded the most fascinating. Brewed with cane sugar and I can taste it. It’s more of a refined sugar. And incredible porter worth a taste but it’s limited.

Jun 22, 2008 Pours dark brown with brownish head. Roasty, caramel malt, light touch of coffee, sugar cane is present.
Very impressed, wish this beer was available here in FL.

Jun 15, 2008 22 oz bottle. Dark brown with a crema head. Nose is brown sugar, molasses and light espresso. Medium body with a buzz. Taste is tar, burnt sugar and lime set against toffee and mocha. A bit harsh at times but nice touches of sweetness.
