| 3.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 3/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | Oct 15, 2004 Black body, not much head. Deep chocolate malt aroma with a classic porter tartness which seems to be a combination of lactic acid and some herbal hops. Very nice flavor, has more of that "deep" chocolate malt and pronounced tart grassy hops. A great porter! 21iceman40 (1731), vienna, West Virginia, USA
