Mar 7, 2009 The aroma is a bit off but has all the basic elements of a porter, toasted malt, coffee, and chocolate (all be it very weak). The appearance is brown with a small head. The flavor is like the aroma but not yummy. The palate is thin. Overall not one of my favorites.

Dark brown. Nice chocolatey aroma. Lightish body is nonetheless fairly smooth. Chocolatey notes. Decent example.

Feb 13, 2009 Opaque black with nice tan head and mine came with a horseshoe design for good luck. Very nice chocolate and charcoal aroma with lots of chocolate malt. Soft and creamy mouthfeel. Lots of smoke in the finish, adding to the nice flavor profile. Toasty too. Not complex but a solid brew.

Jan 24, 2009 On tap at Big River – WDW. Poured medium brown with a short, creamy cap of tan head. The aroma picked up baker’s chocolate and molasses upfront with lots of roast to it.. rather muddled. The flavor had black malts, chocolate, and dry-roasted coffee at the core with coffee and almost oaky bitterness around.. warmth brought out sticky molasses that worked quite well.. dry finish. Medium-bodied and nicely roasty on the palate.. didn’t move too well through the mouth though.

Dec 23, 2008 Draft in Chattanooga. Black in the glass with a creamy tan head that settles to a thin lasting layer which leaves light lace. Nice coffee and chocolate aroma. The flavor also has coffee and chocolate with a roast backing. Medium body with a roast coffee bitter aftertaste. Nice!

Dark with ruby edges, fine tan head, rich chocolate aroma, sweet carmel malt flavor with a light touch of hop spicyness, hint of roasted malts, nice chocolate finish, goes well with chocolate desert, only a hint of bitterness at the very end
