| 3.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 9/10 | 4/5 | 14/20 | Nov 2, 2003 Well this is one gorgeous beer when its poured into my pint mug.. dark porter brown with a great creamy off white head..it shrinks fast but it lingers on as great lace.
Smell is a little subdued for style..but I detect chocolate roastted malts in abundance
WOw I liked the taste of this beer..wonderfully smooth and with great chocolaty flavours..and a nice alcohol taste underneath..very fast finish for a porter..but this is yummy..some spiciness too underneath.
Very smooth and most likeable on the tongue.
A nice drinkable porter..I enjoyed this one.

| 2.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 5/5 | 4/10 | 3/5 | 8/20 | Oct 20, 2003 Color and everything is right, even the carmelly sweet aroma, after that it really falls apart. Watery, very carbonated. Sweet finish. I with Buck_Dich here, while its not awful, did this beer really need to be created? BückDich (4857), McCall, Idaho, USA
| 3.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Oct 13, 2003 Dark brown color with an average porter aroma with light chocolate and caramel. Flavor is a little dry and sweet. Not too many things going on here, but it finishes easy. PeterA (339), Virginia, USA
| 2.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 2/5 | 10/20 | Oct 13, 2003 This was just an odd beer for me. It had a nice coffee, nutty flavor but it felt watered down. It didn't look highly carbonated, but it felt it when I drank it. So close to a very good beer, but really just average. loweredsixth (943), Fresno, California, USA
| 2.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 2/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Oct 4, 2003 Transparent ruby-brown color with a small off-white head. The aroma and flavor were very one-dimensional...all I got was bubblegum. I'll have to revisit this because that's absolutely all I could taste here...just sweet bubblegum. Medium thin consistency...medium carbonation. Sham (1846), Seattle, Washington, USA
| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Sep 22, 2003 Pours a deep brown with mahogany edges, with small head and lace. Caramel, roast malts and a bit of fruit in the nose. A very smooth roast malt flavor with a bit more of the caramel. A drinkable porter. TipsyMcStager (946), Calgary, Alberta, Canada
| 2.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 2/5 | 4/10 | 2/5 | 8/20 | Aug 18, 2003 light brown sugar aroma and some malt. Pours amber brown, low tan head. Has a harshness to it that isn't appealing. Weak body and flavour. Yuck...
