Nov 9, 2007 bottle. pours a nice light black with a 1/4" tan head. the aromas are wonderful... coffee, chocolate and malts. nice medium body with low carbonation. this flows over the palate smoothly while releasing the slightly bitter and coffee laced finish. excellent porter.

Oct 29, 2007 Sampler at <a href=http://www.ratebeer.com/Place/illinois/frankf Liquors, Frankfort. Great, um, "robust" appearance. A little lighter smell, not too many roasties in evidence. However, the taste is nice and mellow. A smooth porter drink with a nice clean finish.

Oct 20, 2007 Bottle. Dark brown body, large rich light tan head, bready nose with some espresso notes. Astringent, perhaps from the carbonation, dark breads, a hint of chocolate and coffee, dry, minimal finish, somewhat thin.

Oct 20, 2007 12oz bottle into pint. Pours a dark brown with a thin white head that leaves quickly. Aromas of chocolate and malts with a hint of peanuts. Flavors of coffee beans, with a slightly sweet caramel finish. Has a thin, watered-down mouthfeel for being a "robust" porter. Not bad, but a little disappointing.
