| 3.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 5/5 | 7/10 | 5/5 | 15/20 | May 17, 2009 From bottle. Black in colour with a great frothy tan head. Chocolate aroma, a little musky with hint of damp wood and whisky. Smooth texture, strong chocolate influence with coffee beans helping with the bitterness. Almost like and alcoholic milkshake or a Baileys. Pretty tasty porter, however close to a Oatmeal stout of some sort. Lovely. Bullit (1374), Glasgow, Scotland
| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | May 5, 2009 Bottle. Dark brown colour, tan head. Aroma of roasted malts, chocolate and vanilla. Flavour is similar, with coffee cream and dark fruits. Nice porter. Dezzilu (212), Whitmore Lake, Michigan, USA
| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 5/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Apr 21, 2009 A black pour with a slick contrasting white head. The aroma was a wonderful roasted, sweet hops. In the mouth it was a full-bodied flavor, solid, and thick. My only complaint was that the finish slightly thin on flavor and lacked something that can only be described as ’gumption’. A decent beer, but not incredibly memorable.

| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Feb 16, 2009 on tap At Coles Buffalo NY. Roasty, bourbon, woody aroma. Taste is immediately bourbon. Bourbon really dominates the taste rather than adding to it. The porter seems rather lost here. Nice mouth feel but IMO the bourbon should compliment the base beer not over whelm. But still pretty tasty
