I suppose this is not blended but brewed as a Dark Lager more akin to a Czech such or a German Schwarzbier. Quite dark, lightly toasted malts with a pronounced, crisp dryness and some bitterness. Light notes of coffee and a touch of chocolate and...vanilla? Actually quite good. kp (8600), Woodstock, Georgia, USA

| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 14/20 | Feb 8, 2002 Eminently drinkable beer - perfect for when you’re hanging out and aren’t actively ’tasting’ the beer. As noted by others, surprisingly good black and tan for a premix. The mild caramel maltiness balances the bitterness nicely. Some bitterness, but not enough to scare away anyone. hopdog (5631), Lansdale, Pennsylvania, USA

Very dark brew with a large, fizzy, khaki head… clear and caramel-colored when held up to bright light. Chocolate and hickory notes in the aroma. Well-balanced, lightly bitter flavor. Otherwise, bland and non-descript. Light to medium-bodied and fizzy. Finishes crisp, clean and then dry. CaptainCougar (5547), Rockville, Maryland, USA
| 2.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 11/20 | Oct 27, 2002 Dark, but not opaque, with a thin tan head. Slighty bitter with a roasted aroma. It has characteristics of a macrobrew in its flavor profile. Kinda thin for a porter and it has a rather dull finish. Not a bad beer, but nothing I would seek out to purchase again.
