Sep 12, 2005 bottle-pours deep brown with a sudsy tan head. hoppy, chocolate, char, milky yeast twang, lightly smokey/cigar note as well. hopsy, char chocate flavors with a touch of oxidization. If this bottle were fresh, this would be an amazing porter. good finish. only bad quality is the body. its lightly flimsy and watery, but the flavors here are well distributed. some woody notes come out as the beer warmed a bit. I will drink this again if i can find it!

Aug 31, 2005 Deep reddish brown, short head, very little lacing. Nice sweet fruit and chocolate aroma. Taste had a nice amount of sweet chocolate and a dry roasty finish. Palate was smooth and mostly thick.

Jul 14, 2005 12 oz bottle: burnt cedar, fairly opaque with a persistent ring of off-tan foam that forms from a falling, frothy head. Cherry-raisin aroma with a nice roasted component and maltiness. Palate is touch on the thin side, but has enough carbonation to deliver nice fruitiness and toasted dark malts on top of a subtle toasted hop bitterness. Not too shabby.

Jul 7, 2005 Bottled beer of the month. Nothing special here. Tasted what it should be. Slight roasty flavor.

Jun 28, 2005 Rock steady porter. Pour was very dark brown with small brim of a white head. Aroma is not all that huge, but the taste more than makes up for that fact. Bold chocolate with a nice coffee hint. Big malts with a nice backdrop of spice and caramel to keep it exciting. A tad on the watered down side, but barely. Very descent brew.

Jun 5, 2005 Not a bad porter with some nice coffee/chocolate undertones. Very easy to drink.

Jun 2, 2005 Pours a ruby brown with little to no head. Muted roasted malt aromatics with a hint of anise. Roast malt flavor, with tinges of caramel and coffee. The finish has lingering hints of nut and anise flavor. Mouthfeel is medium, but slightly watery.

Jun 1, 2005 Dark brown pour with aroma of roasty dark malt, chocoff, some licorice. Tastes roasty malty, with chocoff, some licorice, hops, and spice. Fairly dense palate with a fairly dry finish. Solid. Blue Ridge (Frederick BC) is a damn good brewer!
