| 3.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 4/5 | 11/20 | Jan 4, 2005 This is a nice beer. It pours a dark jewled brown with a nice tan head. It has a nice toasty nose and almost a chocolate taste. I’ll buy it again. dortmunder (961), Herdecke, Germany
| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Dec 27, 2004 Black colour, small off-white head. Malty, coffeish aroma. Roastmalty, coffeish taste. Sweet with notes of caramalt. The taste reminds me of "caro coffee". Bitter-sweet, slightly hoppy aftertaste, but a mild, nice bitterness, not the awful medicine-bitterness I´ve experienced in other baltic porters. Very nice.

| 3.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 2/5 | 13/20 | Dec 22, 2004 Sweet and gently hoppy, but lacked the solid body I prefer in a porter. Head was respectable, but short-lived. Also left little memory on the palate. heemer77 (4304), Savannah, Missouri, USA
| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Nov 29, 2004 Very dark red and brown body. Head is a medium sized light tan. The aroma is malty with prunes, brandy and a touch of coffee. A nice creamy mouthfeel compliments the full flavors. It has a little red grape with some molasses. The caramel gets stronger as you drink it. Reminds me of eating a sweet bread, maybe banana bread? A fairly light bodied beer that does the style justice. YK23 (269), Haifa, Israel

| 3.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Nov 26, 2004 Slightly more alcohol and bitterness than I expected. I had hoped for a fairly flat, malty, thick porter with some sweetness. Chocolate present. Alcohol could have been better hidden if more sweetness was present. Not that impressed.
