Apr 4, 2009 Oversweet and bourbony and a little stuffy at first, bitter dark cocoa and molasses. Mellows and improves as it settles, allowing the sweetness to fade a bit from the intro, and bringing the cocoa to the fore, but also introducing deeper shades of complexity that i look forward to discovering next time around.

Toasted dark black cocoa powder aroma, dark chocolate candy bars, and hints of roasted barley- light phenolics, ok fruity esters- raisin, and apricots- smells toffee and sugary sweet. Big chocolate flavor, toffee, molasses, fruity , light doughy yeastiness, slight acrid burnt taste, but fairly sweet overall.

Mar 29, 2009 Pours a transparent dark mahogany with a thin, spotty-lacing light tan head. Aroma of sweet dark caramel and fresh oak with a touch of grape candy. Body starts with a nice fullness and good fresh oaky complexity with a hint of light fruity tartness. Finishes smooth and slightly warming with some lingering dark chocolate. A nice strong porter.
