Ansset13 (120), Wilmington, North Carolina, USA Jan 26, 2008 This is an elegant porter. The nose and flavor are richly influenced by mocha. this is a true delight, and a must try for those whom have not.
ucusty (803), Wake Forest, North Carolina, USA Jul 14, 2008 Bottle from 2006. Definite oxidation on the aroma and flavor. I need to get a fresh bottle for a re-rate. flyerdog (1), Ardmore Park, Pennsylvania, USA does not count Jul 14, 2008 Looks like Black Gold. Rich and complex. Here is a suggestion, try it in a cognac snifter, sounds strange, but I did this once and it actually brought out some subtle flavors..like cinnamon and hazlenut, and accented the chocolate tones. I love this stuff, definitely in my top five ndfreak77 (70), USA Jul 13, 2008 Poured from a tap a dark brown. Wow this stuff is fantastic. Tastes a lot like a mocha blend coffee. This is the best porter that I have tried. carruthm (306), USA Jul 8, 2008 old tasting so short notes. dark brown pour, tan head. malty caramel nose with smooth malt flavor. good palate balance. msante79 (171), Illinois, USA Jul 8, 2008 Had a while back. Pours dark ruby brown with tan head. Aroma is malt, molassas, caramel and some toffee. Flavor is smooth and creamy with hints of burnt malts and some caramel and toffee. Nice porter and an all time classic.
