| 3.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 3/5 | 16/20 | Jul 24, 2006 This is one of the better porters I’ve had to this point. The pour is a very dark brown with a very nice tan head. The aroma is really great--a nice mix of dark chocolate with some roasted malt. The flavor follows suit, but with a little hint of that caramel malt in the back. Very smooth and easy to drink. Ibrew2or3 (2766), Safety Harbor, Florida, USA
| 4.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 5/5 | 8/10 | 5/5 | 18/20 | Jul 13, 2006 Poured XX dark with nice mocha colored head. Excellent lacing. Aroma is chocolate, burnt black patent, and a hint of hops. Flavor has superb balance (in my mind) of chocolate malts, burnt black patent malts and sweet caramel malt flavor. The sweet caramel is what makes it for me. The sweetness is just enough to play against the dryer chocolate and much dryer black patent malts. Hops are just noticeable. Left with a balanced aftertaste. Best Porter I’ve ever had. BrewDad (2370), Olympia, Washington, USA

A good dark brown porter. A good even aroma. This had a nice easy to drink flavro. Was missing some of the good strong chocolate and roast flavors but was a good brew. Easy to drink. TBone (6842), Pori, Finland
