| 2.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 5/10 | 3/5 | 11/20 | Mar 16, 2005 Updated: Mar 17, 2005Aroma is great. Roast nuts and malt. Flavors are very strong. Dominated by a tobacco flavor. I am very impressed with BBC but I just do not like that tobacco note. Rated Sierra Nevda’s porter low for this, although its sort of unfair. To maintain some objectivity this is drinkable and full flavored and not a bad beer to try. Quietude (10), Lexington, Kentucky, USA
