| 3.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | May 15, 2009 Bottle. Pours a very dark brown almost black color with a small tan white head. Not a very overpowering porter, actually, rather unorthodox. Hint of yeast and very mild hint of coffee. A little more malty than I anticipated as well. Fairly smooth, but a little too flat. Expected a bit more. gringo332 (238), Richardson, Texas, USA
| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 4/5 | 14/20 | May 7, 2009 decent looking beer. It has a pretty good body with the lower level of carbonation that I prefer in a dark beer. But the flavor is kind of boring and lackluster. Drinkable, but unremarkable. zakkbironia (83), Athens, Greece
| 2.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 2/5 | 6/10 | 2/5 | 11/20 | Apr 30, 2009 Dark brown coloured beer with unusual taste. Not bad at all. Could be better though. savnac (408), Palmer, Alaska, USA
| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 13/20 | Apr 26, 2009 Bottle. Aroma is molasses and caramel. Dark brown with a tan head. Roasty sweet malt flavor with a nice smokey finish. Medium to full bodied with a mellow carbonation and a smooth mouth feel. I didn’t know what to expect with this beer but I was pleasantly surprised. CheersMate1 (785), Atlanta, Georgia, USA
| 3.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Apr 24, 2009 Slight off-white head. Nice black opaque color. Looks pretty good. I think that my brother was crazy for getting this, but it looks ok. Anyways, sweet sweet malty taste. Very smooth actually. A little watery, but weird because the texture is smooth. Not a very pungent aroma, but still decent. Lacks that roast taste that I enjoy. There is a SLIGHT hint of it in the aftertaste, but not enough. Overall, a decent porter. I was surprised that this was at the Total Wine. I have never seen it before. Too thin, and not even nuances in the flavor to be interesting. mkel07 (519), Brisbane, Australia
| 3.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 3/5 | 17/20 | Apr 19, 2009 500ml bottle. Tick and black in colour, almost engine oil like. Mountainous tan head with big frothy bubbles and burnt toffee and malt notes with a hint of coffee. Thick and silky mouthfeel. gnoff (3560), Göteborg, Sweden

Sweet, raissin, vinous scent. Roasted, vinous taste. Medium to smooth mouthfeel, medium bitterness. NomDeBeer (399), Maryland, USA
