Dec 17, 2005 Very nice robust porter overall. Sampled at the brewery @ GABF 05 week. Pours a very dark brown almost black with a light beige head. Aroma of lots of choclolate, caramel, toffee, and molasses. Some nuttiness in the flavor with more chocolate. Smooth lightly sweet finish.

Jul 27, 2004 This one has a dark brown body and a very large, meringue-like head. There’s a roasty aroma like smoked coffee. There’s more of the same in the flavor. Over carbonation gets in the way a bit and keeps you from being able to get the full flavor, leaving it a bit thin and sourish until you can swirl out enough CO2 to let it come into it’s own.

Jun 27, 2006 Draft at Max’s.Opaque blackness. Small tan head. Nose is sweet with roasted malts, chocolate and light sweetened coffee aromas. Taste is sweet malts, almost a milk chocolatey type flavor, light roastiness, and sugared-and-creamed coffee. Body is light-medium and very creamy. Very smooth. Finishes with more sweet malts, pleasant roastiness, choco-notes and light coffee.

Nov 14, 2005 Pours a deep rusty black brown. Rocky pale tan head. Faintly smokey, olive, cocoa, coffee nose. Roasty ashen woody flavor, dark chocolate, nutty, earth, finishing with pleasant coffee like bitterness. Soft body and high drinkability make this easy going porter quite a session beer. Nicely balanced, decent.

Feb 22, 2004 Clear purple-brown body and smallish velvety light tan head. Fruity nose suggesting currants plus some chocolate and roasted character. Flavor is roasty up front with a prominent fruit and coffee sourness in the finish. A medium-bodied, unexceptional porter.

Apr 16, 2006 A faint chocolate and toffee aroma. The appearance is a brownish/black color with a small head. The flavor contains a tad bit of smoke with some coffee and chocolate. The mouthfeel is a bit thin with a rather neutral finish. Not bad
