Jul 12, 2009 Pours a dark brown that allows a lot of light. Doesn’t look like a porter. Head is a finger thick and tan. The nose is weird, old, English smelling, sweet, smells like a brown ale, musty. The flavor is papery, shows some peanut shell, tastes like an old oxidized brown ale, mild sweetness. Palate is smooth

Jun 30, 2009 I was surprised the pizza place I went to yesterday had a decent selection of taps including this. Dark black with brown edges and a short white head. Smelled slightly roasty. The taste was a nice mix of roast and malt. Mouthfeel was great and I could have drank a couple more but I had things to do.

Jun 28, 2009 12 oz. Opaque black with a small but lasting disc of foam. Aroma of caramel, chocolate, coffee and char. Flavor is the same with a nice dry finish of more char and coffee. Medium body is smooth and drinkably watery with a dry finish.

Jun 12, 2009 Very dark porter. Tatsed a bit like burnt coffee. More earthy than I would like. Very flavorful but not in a way I enjoyed.
