| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Jul 19, 2007 Dark brown colored pour with medium sized head.

| 3.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | Jul 13, 2007 Seventh stop during the ABA Beer Tour ’07 in Olympia, Washington. Sampled on tap at the Fish Tale brewpub. Pours an opaque dark brown brew with a fast dissolving tan head. The tan ring sticks around and leaves behind a good lacing. Aroma of toasted dark chocolate malt some vanilla bean and light toffee. Taste is full bodied, a little oily, lightly carbonated with a smokey chocolate and coffee flavor. Finish has a sweet flavor and then a lingering bitter aftertaste. Bradrcr (781), Renton, Washington, USA
| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 5/5 | 7/10 | 2/5 | 13/20 | Jun 15, 2007 On Draught at the brewery. Aroma is light malt and light coffee forward with a touch of alcohol. Beer is dark brown with an even off-white head. Flavor is extremely malty, medium roast with light hop flavor. Mouthfeel is slightly slick (diacetyl?), with medium carbonation feel. Light bodied for style, crisp for a porter, but not the easiest to drink with the heavy complexity. pinkzambia (989), Boise, Idaho, USA
| 3.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 5/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | Mar 31, 2007 Tap at Kahootz: Brown with a light brown ring head. The aroma is tangy and roasted with flavors of chocolate and coffee beans lightly roasted. It has a nice finish although it doesn’t have that oily feel that often accompanies porters. Enjoyable!

A deep dark brown brew with a light head. The bartender pours with no head. Good for the swiller not the one rating brews. The beer has a deep dark malt flavor with some chcolate and toffee flavors this was a rich and flavorful brew. Poperinge (359), Cowtown, Alberta, Canada
| 4.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 5/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 17/20 | Feb 19, 2007 Huh only 30 ratings? Big, Robust and Dry. I have had this on cask as well and it was excellent. Page 166 of Michael Jackson’s Great Beer Guide only 410 out of 500 Classic Brews to go. bitbucket (2036), Kirkland, Washington, USA
| 3.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 5/5 | 8/10 | 3/5 | 16/20 | Dec 26, 2006 Draft at Beveridge Place Pub. This beer kind of blurs my distinctions between porters and stouts. Pours an opaque black with a lacy tan head. The aroma is vanilla and coffee. Creamy medium body. More coffee in the taste with some caramel to sweeten it up a bit. Dry finish with a touch of smoke. glkaiser (1182), Seattle, Washington, USA
| 4.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 17/20 | Jun 30, 2006 On tap at brewpub. I love me a good porter...and this is tasty. Black with a chocolate aroma....also some espresso notes. Fairly light porter, but still packs in good taste. The aroma really comes through in the taste. Good hops finish for a porter. Awesome.
