Taste is nice deep roasted flavor with a nice finish that goes from creamy to pleasantly bitter. Not the best porter I’ve had but worth the money for sure. Dogbrick (2855), Columbus, Ohio, USA
| 3.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Mar 5, 2008 Sample at Bodega. This beer is a nearly opaque dark reddish-brown color with a medium thin beige head that dissipates slowly. Spotty lacing. Caramel and chocolate in the nose along with a touch of coffee. Medium, smooth (almost thin) body with flavors of chocolate and weak coffee, plus mild hops. The finish is coffee and burnt malt. Slightly above average overall. fiver29 (713), Cleveland, Ohio, USA
| 4.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 9/10 | 5/5 | 10/10 | 5/5 | 16/20 | Mar 3, 2008 Bottle pours black with a nice tan head. Head retention is minimal and shows a little lacing in the glass. Smells of coffee and chocolate waft from the glass as I smell it. Tastes wonderful - like mostly chocolate with a nice smooth finish. I really enjoyed this one. VitaminR (426), Colorado, USA
| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Mar 2, 2008 Coffee, almost a little smokiness on the nose. Deep dark brown, though had a lighter clarity quality to it. Rich chocolate and burnt smoky coffee. Good understated hop balance. Nice long finish. All around great Porter. unclemike (834), Ft.

| 3.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 4/10 | 3/5 | 4/10 | 3/5 | 17/20 | Mar 2, 2008 Dark brown body with tan head. Started out good... very chocolatey with some sweet brown sugar notes but seemed to get worse as it warmed or I just didn’t want more than half a bottle (either way a bad thing). Flavor was slightly metallic and coffee flavr emerged, but it tased like bad old coffee... the kind that’s been sitting in the pot for a couple days. Palette was kinda chalky but it had a decent thick mouthfeel.
