| 3.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 17/20 | Mar 10, 2007 12 oz bottle from Mr. Bendo. Dark as night. Aroma is strong roasted malts and coffee. Flavor is awesome - Dark malts, coffee, with a hint of sweetness, perhaps caramel. Mouthfeel is a tad bit watery, but otherwise, a nearly perfect Porter. Im actually surprised at some of the recent reviews. I actually think this is one of the best porters I have had. CaptainCougar (5493), Rockville, Maryland, USA
| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 14/20 | Mar 10, 2007 Sampled on 2/3/07 courtesy of boboski: Pours a transparent dark mahogany with a thin, wispy, light tan head. Aroma of slightly earthy toasty dark malt with a hint of coffee. Body starts with a touch of caramely sweetness, some earthy roasty coffee and dark chocolate with a touch of tartness. A decent brew, but could use a little more complexity.
