Jan 1, 2010 Bottle - Pours a blackish brown. Nice tan head. Very good lacing. Aroma of chocolate and coffee. Exceptionally smooth and creamy. Very nice warming feeling. Tastes like a sweet coffee/caramel capuchino. Its not a beer that you will get excited thinking about, but it is very robust and all around solid. I will enjoy the rest of the 6 pack.

Dec 16, 2009 This one poured a very dark brown color with a very minimal tan head. Aroma was nice roasted dark malts and some chocolate sweetness in there as well. Flavor was dark roasted, some smokey hints, and a chocolate sweetness in the backend. Overall a good porter, but lacks the complexity of the great ones like edmund fitzgerald.

Dec 9, 2009 Pours a dark brown color with a moderate tan head that slowly dissapates leaving a sticky lacing behind. Aroma consists of toffee, roasted malt, perhaps chocolate and oatmeal. Taste is a very robust combination of roasted malt bitterness and chocolate/ toffee sweetness. Very flavorable porter

Dec 2, 2009 On cask at Friday the Firkenteenth at the Grey Lodge Pub. Pours an opaque, flat black with a little white head. Sweet aroma has some chocolate and hints of smoke, toast, bread, nuts coffee. Flavor is a classic porter, nuts, coffee, toasted grains with some nice robust sweetness with a touch of maple and brown sugar. Finish is full bodied and dry. Very nice on cask.

Nov 27, 2009 Bottle 12oz. - Poured like dark chocolate with small tan head.
Aroma - dark fruits, soothing chocolate scent and musty wine barrels.
Flavor - molasses, chocolate and dry woodsy smoke taste!
Palate - medium bodied with thin texture. Good carbonation with lingering smokey wood taste. Dry....
Overall - The smoked wood flavor really shines through in this brew. Alot of nice and somewhat funky flavors, good beer and would try again.
