Jan 15, 2009 <i>Cask at ’Coles & Mr. Goodbar Cask Event’, Buffalo, NY.</i> Pours a very dark brown with a spare lasting tan head. Nice smoky aroma along with roasted malt and chocolate. Flavour of roasted malt, light smoke, some chocolate and a mild roasty bitter finish. Average to medium bodied. Very good stuff!

Jan 8, 2009 2008-12-06. Very dark brown-black body with a modest tan head that fades. (3+) Mdoerately smokey aroma, very lightly acrid. Bitter lightly ashen porter character, sweet malt base. (6+) Average bodied palate is smooth, lightly carbonated. Could be more full for my liking. Just enough smoke character in this to turn me off of it a bit. Not bad, but needs some more depth beyond the roasty smoke touchstones. <i>As Pleasantville Smoked Porter? Cask at Coles, Buffalo</i>

Dec 12, 2008 Cask at Coles/Mr. Goodbar Fest.
Smokey nose, dark chocolate, black cherry, black, with a small toffee head. Taste is milder than the nose, sublte chocolate, fruit is softer and the smoke is demure. Medium bodied, really well balanced, pleasanty bitter. Marvellous.

Dec 10, 2008 cask- coles in buffalo, ny- not all that enjoyable, which was surprising considering the reputation of this brewer- I found the porter had a real estery, subtle solvent like quality, that made the drinking a bit laborious. Okay, but not outstanding-

Dec 8, 2008 Cask at Buffalo Cask Ale Festival. Pours near black with a thin beige head. The aroma is smoked malt, roast and leather. The flavor has a nice balance of smoked malt and sweet caramel. Burnt wood and a touch of hops round in out nicely. Very good.

Sep 28, 2008 Sampled from a growler at RBSG 08, with thanks to Padrefan. Pours a reddish-brown with a tan ring. Very sweet and smoky aroma, of malt and dark fruit. Taste is also both sweet and smoky and lingers nicely. Really great smoked porter.
