Bottled at Stockholm Beer Festival 2007. A black beer with a brown shine under a thin brown head. The aroma is sweet malty with strong notes of roasted malt, chocolate, and coffee. The flavor is sweet malty with notes of roasted malt and hints of smoke from black malt, leading to a dry roasted finish.

Draft at Bull and Cork, Dublin. The pour was dark brown in color, ok initial head and below par lacing. The aroma was milk chocolate and light roast. The flavor was milk chocolate first and foremost, light roast second, and a variety of lesser harder to detect hints of licorice and maybe some dark fruits. The mouthfeel was low on carbonation, somewhat sticky. Overall a sweeter take on the porter style, also not complex, but enjoyable (not sessionable: too sweet).

Black, though with very little head. The aroma is quite mild. Dry, decent roasted flavours, coffee more so than chocolate, pronounced bitterness, but not to the point of being harsh. Medium bodied. One of the better Irish brews IMO.

Dark ruby, almost opaque color, nice expresso head, some lace. Some roasted and papery notes in the nose. Coffeish, coffee beans all over. Clean, a bit lagerish product. Nicely drinkable.

Bottled at Stockholm Beer Festival. Dark brown, small head. Evident licorice aroma. medium bodied, a bit tarry with resiony finish. Uncomplicated and a bit edgy, but still good.

Bottled. Ruby red colour, brown mediumsized head. Aroma is smoked and roasted malts along with dry dark fruit and chocolate. Flavour is very much the same with smoked wet wooden hints added. Pleasant.
