| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | May 5, 2007 Bottle: Black in color, large rocky beige head, clumpy lacing.   Earthen roasted malt nose, slight cocoa and coffee.  
Forwardly hoppy, roasted malts are quick to follow, somewhat dry cocoa aspect rounds out the exit.   Remains earthy throughout.  
Moderate body and mouthfeel.   Finish is dry, loaded with cocoa and bakers chocolate.   Subtle background of earthy bitterness.
  Fairly good porter, just wished it was a bit thicker.   Lingering tart roastiness.
