| 2.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 5/10 | 2/5 | 10/20 | Jul 11, 2003 Small tan head atop a clear chestnut body. Aroma is moderately sweet, dark chocolate, caramel, light orange and cherry. Taste is underwhelming, especially after the inviting aroma -- mildly sweet, watery roasty chocolate, finishing roasty with trace of cherry and earthy bitterness. Medium body. harrisoni (6946), Ashford, Kent, England
| 4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | Oct 24, 2006 On tap at Bridgeport, Portland. Black with disappearing tan head. Sour dark malt aroma. Again, a bit carbonated which gave it a thin feel in mouth. Nice liquorish flavour, bit of smoke, choccy liquorice, still excellent despite the lack of fullness in mouth. jcwattsrugger (5581), Florida and, New Jersey, USA
