Nov 22, 2003 Relitively sweet flavor and aroma. Not a big attention grabber. Rich brown color. Drinkable, but ordinary.

Nov 5, 2003 (bottled) Deep garnet color with near brilliant clarity. Roasted, chocolate malt aromas. Medium-bodied with lowish carbonation. Rich, smooth malt flavor with roasted grain, nice fruit and caramel. Firm hop bitterness leads to a pleasant dry finish. Well balanced and clean.

Oct 13, 2003 Soapy coffee aroma. Texture is a little rough and gritty, with mild flavors of chalky coffee and caramel. Soft on the palate, with a rough finish.

Oct 12, 2003 Coca-cola color, clear. Overcarbonated but smooth. A very basic porter, roasted and a bit chocolatey perhaps, but rather one dimensional. The aroma has a blend of the same, chocolatey with a plastic quality. Slight sour, milky, too.

Aug 15, 2003 (Best by 10/31/03) The beer is almost opaque, just a little light shines through my glass. I got a nice rocky head on my pour. The nose is straightforward dark chocolate, coffee, and hops. The palate is medium in body with a refreshing, but subtle acidity. The flavors are predominately yeast, fruit, and chocolate. The finish is restrained and complex at the same time. I really like this beer, because it is all too easy to drink pint after pint.

Aug 10, 2003 Updated: Oct 14, 2003Dark brown color with a tan head. Roasted coffee aroma. Flavor of coffee and chocolate. Has a little bitterness and way too much carbonation. Thanks Dogbrick.
