[Bottle, thanks Guerde!] Pours dark brown with a small tan head. Aroma has a lot of chocolate and roasted malt. Taste is also chocolate (dark) dominant with roasted malt, cocoa and a little vanilla. Good mouthfeel with a long bitter and deep roasted malt finish. Good stuff, I would like to try it in a non-tasting setting.

Nov 28, 2008 <i>Tasting at Papsoe</i><br />Black color. Very solid brew, strong body, good chocolate flavor (the aroma is simpler), sweet enough, touch of roasted malt, good hopping, strong bitterness and pleasant warming alcohol; powerful. The final has also some roasted nuts Very good.

Nov 27, 2008 Once again, AleSmith produced some very solid stuff. I am not a huge fan of Porter beers, but this was very good. Nice aroma and flavor of coffee, chocolate, and some dark malt. Just a little bit of bitterness at the end. 10% hidden very well. Good stuff.
