IPFreely (1471) - Sanborn, New York, USA - OCT 27, 2004
Deeper ruby color, pretty transparent, creamy tan head. Malty, some notes of caramel and toffee, not all that roasty. Thin bodied, but fairly smooth. Not bad but unimpressive.

ESBob (247) - Indiana, USA - MAY 19, 2013
Pours a dark brown with finger off white head. Aroma is a very light roast chocolate malt. Taste is light roast cararmel, nice caramel; Thin, watery mouthfeel. Pretty good accesible black and tan.

GSH1976 (124) - Delaware, USA - MAY 12, 2013
Pours a medium to dark brown with not much aroma to speak of other than a slight hint of roasted malt. Taste follows the nose with perhaps a feint caramel flavor. Thin bodied with above average carbonation. Better than most macros but don’t expect anything special. I wanted something to have while on vacation in between the good stuff and this suits my needs. Very easy to drink.

bottle. Haven’t had a black & tan in a long time. Pretty good flavor and easy to drink. Got from a friend who purchased in Ohio. Not bad

For the price, this is a decent beer. Pours nice and dark, good slightly bitter porter taste but definitely combines with the lighter beer half to make a good flavour.

Nekronos (3184) - Xalapa, MEXICO - APR 22, 2013
Is not a porter but would be hard for me to tell what style is. Maybe a dark lager or a Viena. It was nice and flavoured with some fine malts hints.

Darwenus (384) - Virginia, USA - APR 14, 2013
Chocolate colored body with no real head or lace to mention. There’s a bit of malt and a slight licorice note in the aroma. The flavor is more or less a weak porter. Watery, but a slightly smokey finish.

BillWyce (532) - Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, USA - APR 13, 2013
From notes: Poured clear nut brown, with a 1-finger light tan head. Lightly roasty aroma, with a nutty note. Medium body, a touch thin and a touch fizzy. Flavor mostly nutty, with some roasty notes underneath.

Przecietny to hyba browar bo drugi raz nie dostalem tego co oczekiwalem. Piana mala, kolor ciemny, czarny ale z mocnym przeswitem co swiadczy ze piwo nie jest geste. lekki aromat slodowy a smak jakby rozwodniony i ciut slodkawy. Brak informacji na etykiecie o procentowej zawartosci alkoholu.

The beer pours dark brown. A smoky caramel/chocolate flavor. The palate is thin, therefore it is easy to drink. A decent beer for the price. ---Rated via Beer Buddy for iPhone
