| 3.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Jan 18, 2007 Shared at CT V. Aroma of chocolate and some sweetness with a little roastiness that comes through. Flavor was sweet, alcohol, and it seemed kind of thin. Seemed a little milder than i thought it would be. Maybe this has peaked already. Its been like 2.5 years. moejuck (1172), Ohio, USA

I really thought this beer showed a lot of potential and seemed like it would have reminded me of the Duck Rabbit Baltic porter...which I really enjoyed. But this beer seemed beyond its peak. I think it would/could have been really phenomenal but its past its prime. Oh well...all in all in was good and enjoyable beer that I was happy I got try.
