Jul 6, 2009 A Mes rate. Bottle at home thanks to Ang.
Black brown with a really good creamy beige head that is sadly not around for long. Pleasant roasty aroma with plenty of malt. Flavour is really not doing it for me. It tastes like a medicine I used to have as a kid when I was a bit erm... backed up. Strange vegetable note too. Not really getting much coffee out of it either. I’m sure plenty of folks would find this much more enjoyable than I do but it’s just not doing it for me.

Jun 27, 2009 Thanks kiefdog for the share. Pours dark cola brown with an off-white head. Nose is roast, coffee, and a bit of earth. Flavor is roast and coffee with a levelling earthiness. Medium-bodied and an enjoyable beer.

Jun 24, 2009 Bottle thanks to ang, had at mes’s gaff. Alround rating: Thin body, roasty coffee character. Iv got it down as thin cold instant carbonated coffee. Boring stuff.

Jun 23, 2009 22oz bottle poured into a stem glass. Nothing about this beer stands out, but with a coffee infused porter I’d consider that to be a good thing. I haven’t tried the BBC Drayman’s Porter, but after tasting this beer I will.

Jun 18, 2009 22oz from ppoitras - thanks, Pete! Deep and chewy looking pour, with a massive cafe au lait head. Prickly carbonation and a thick body. Nice base porter satisfies with chocolate malts, pleasant hops to balance. The body was pleasant and creamy, and the beer is exceptionally drinkable. Not an overpowering coffee brew by any means, which is just fine. An unassuming but successful and damn tasty beer.

Jun 13, 2009 Draught sampler. Dark brown pour with a nice thick coffee colored head. Aroma of coffee and roasted malt. Somewhat thin taste of coffee, malt and burnt almonds. Finishes with a dry, faint chocolate taste.

Jun 7, 2009 Enjoyable and full-flavored brew. Not too heavy, however. Coffeeness is present immediately but certainly not overwhelming.

May 31, 2009 Bottle. Darkest brown pour with a medium tan head. Roasted malt aroma with coffee and some chocolate. Nutty coffee flavor with creamy chocolate and a dry finish. Good stuff.
