Jan 21, 2007 Bomber. Pours a clear dark brown with an off white head. Hazelnut and caramel nose. Medium body and carbonation. Roasted nuts and chocolate in the taste, with a piney finish.

Jan 21, 2007 Bomber, thanks to the kind hospitality of BitBucket. This might be the last one for the rest of our lives, and more’s the pity. Pours a deep grainy black. Moussy but thin burnt tan head. A little clingy lace. Big roasty and chocolatey nose. Forward attack with nice big body, active carb, strong flavors (same as nose). Awesome.

May 22, 2006 Intersesting beer here. I was caught off guard by the flavors of this beer, almost being wine-like in character. Aroma was buttery, malty sweet, chocolate and toffee. Flavors had some roasty bitterness to it, but it was also rather vinuous. I think it would take awhile for a porter like this to grown on my, but it has the potential to do so.

May 10, 2006 Bottled. Dark pour, almost black with a Coca-Cola colord head. Licorice and cocoa aromas. Dry and musty flavor with some chocolate. Rather watery.

Apr 19, 2006 Draught Black beer with a yellow-transparent head. Coffee, espresso, coffee dregs, bittersweet nose. Black coffee again, ink, mushrooms or black-roasted peppers without the capsicaine burn. Burning MF all the same, medium bodied, but giving a (false) very dense impression. It’s just falling short of excellence points; Cutting corners or wanting to water the style?
