| 4.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 5/5 | 18/20 | Apr 13, 2006 Nice dark brown pour with a decent gray head. Aroma is chocolate and powdered cocoa. A sweet brownie flavor with a floral counterpoint. Great mouthfeel, not thin as too many porters lean to IMO. A nice mocha like finish without the coffee or roast element. A damn fine porter.

Poured dark brown, medium tan head., ruby highlights. Roasty, spicy nose, hint of floral hops. Flavor is roasty malt, with a nice hop balance leading to a mildly bitter finish. Wonderfully soft mouth feel, typical of cask-conditioned ales. In contrast, the tap version of this porter felt a bit thin. DuffMan (2769), the land of bitumen, beef & beer, Alberta, Canada

Rich chocolate flavour with perfectly nuanced notes of roast, prunes, and mild earthy bitterness. Silky mouthfeel, medium bodied.

Pours out a dark brown reddish color with a thick creamy tan head. Smell is chocolate and full of coffee and roasted malts. Taste is thin and sweet. Refreshing, slightly watered down. Full of chocolate and coffee. Very nice, they should bottle this more, perhaps condition it too. Thanks Mr Lugauns
