Nov 17, 2007 This beer was disgusting. I had it once and it was all right so I bought it again and it was terrible. It may have been skunked, but it tasted like a rotten pale ale.

Nov 14, 2007 Bottle; poured a reddish brown; not as dark as most porters. Aroma of caramel, roasted malt, and a very light dusting of chocolate. Palate was pretty weak; thin and almost watery. Flavor was good; caramel, oatmeal sweetness, and roasted malt. I think that the palate was a big turnoff for me. Below average for the style.

Nov 8, 2007 Had this one first in a bar, then tried it again at home. Both were in 12oz bottles. Great look, great taste, not too strong, mildly sweet, balanced bitterness, finishes well leaving you wanting more. This has entered its way into my normal beer selection I think, for I buy it occasionally. When I want a good dark beer, Highland is a good way to go.

Oct 28, 2007 Updated: Mar 3, 2008Bottle. Medium, tan head that quickly went away. Average malt flavor for a porter, a bit thin on the palate for my tastes. OK in a pinch.

Oct 27, 2007 12oz via trade, thanks whoever you were. Pours very dark reddish brown with a nice 1 finger bubbly tan with a hint of brown head. Nose is lightly malty with a hint of dark chocolate. Taste is quite rich, robust and full of oatmeal flavors and really nice roasty toasty malts. This is a very good high quality porter. A little thinner than I’d like but its balanced with a prominent after taste.

Oct 23, 2007 This is my favorite from Highland. An easy drinking porter that is not too hoppy and not too fizzy.

Oct 14, 2007 Pours black with pretty large head. Smells like malt and chocolate. Smooth texture swallow with a weak watery finish. Thick aftertaste.
