| 3.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | Sep 22, 2007 Pours very dark deep brown. You get an earthiness on the nose than levels into a note of chocolate and coffee. These flavors give way to the light hops flavor with some toasty malt notes.

| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Sep 21, 2007 Pours an almost opaque very dark brown with a tan head that rises off the pour but falls fairly quickly. The nose is really odd. It smells like a shirt I would wear while going exploring in a mine and not washing it after wearing it 25 times. Dusty. Old. Stale. Flavor is pretty decent. Nice thick malted flavor with a strong touch of earthy influence. Feel is thin with bubble. Not much really going on. It is drinkable I guess. But I am not moved at all by this offering. Oh well. On to the next. Glouglouburp (2865), Montreal, Quebec, Canada
| 2.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 3/5 | 5/10 | 2/5 | 12/20 | Sep 20, 2007 Updated: Sep 21, 2009In short: A thin highly roasted stout/porter. Inoffensively bland
How: Bottle + tap. This re-rate for a tap pint at Three Dollar Dewey’s, Portland Maine
The look: Almost black body topped by a little beige ring of foam
In long: Light smoke and light chocolate on the nose. Very smooth beer with a soft carbonation and a soft body. Body is rather thin for the style and with the highly roasted floury malts it feels like ashes in water. Chocolate chips and some smoked wood. Fizzy soda-pop carbonation. Astringency. Ashes in the finish. I cannot give it high marks because it is very bland and a little too watery. Yet this is bland beer that is quite drinkable. Atlantic Cool Porter. Brewbie (227), New York, USA

| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 14/20 | Aug 25, 2007 This beer was poured into a large glass with a nice dark brown color. The head faded rather quickly and it has aroma of wood and chocolate malt. It has a rather smooth flavor of roasted coffee and aged wood. There is a nice coffee taste that stays on the palate for a while.
