| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Nov 11, 2007 Nearly opaque, dark black porter with a foamy dark tan head that lingers. The nose is brown sugar with some fresh fruit including, surprisingly, green apple. The body is carbonated very lightly, almost too lightly. Some bitter hops at the front turn into a sweet malty middle with a lingering hop bitterness into the end. This is a good, tasty porter, but leaves something desired. It could use more roastiness, but I’m not complaining at this point. robinvboyer (1433), Sturgeon Falls, Ontario, Canada
| 2.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 5/10 | 2/5 | 10/20 | Nov 11, 2007 nice light brown head. Aroma is roasted malt, some smoke, and a light nuttiness. Flavour is slightly roasty, i’m getting a HUGE metallic taste i just cant shake, it lingers quite a bit. The finish is bitter, and smokey. As i get near the bottom of my glass, the metallic tatse seems to mellow a bit, but its still there. But now i can taste the roasty nuttiness in the flavour, a decent porter, without the metallic tatse, would have been awesome. Dorqui (1361), Brescia, Italy
| 4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | Mar 15, 2006 Updated: Sep 16, 2007Bottled. Creamy and enough foamy head. Black and dense color, much gloomy. Rich and alcoholic scent: distinct notes of coffee, parched malt, burnt wood and bitter cocoa. Much balmy and pleasant aroma. Strong, alcoholic and solid taste. Not much prickly but dense, full and protract with a decided and very long bitter final. Doppelganger (1353), Dry County, Arkansas, USA
| 3.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | Nov 9, 2006 Bottle, from the Dodgy Deli on Cowley Rd. Brown highlighted black with a small but sticky layer of open tan foam. Soft coffee and molasses both in the aroma and flavor. A restrained touch of sourness that feels historically appropriate and adds some texture. A little more roast to the finish wouldn’t hurt, but all in all a very nice little porter. One of the nicest bottled porters I’ve had in the UK so far. I’m seriously kicking myself that I only bought one bottle of this when I had the chance. And now it’s gone. Forever.

| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Nov 21, 2007 Pours a dark brown with light tan head. Chocolate, roasty malt, caramel, oak, hops, and a bit of fruit. Finishes with a little metallic taste, but still pretty good. Mouthfeel is slightly thin.
