| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Aug 9, 2007 Aquired from Suttree in a recent trade. Dark brown pour with a small but lasting light tan head. Aroma is pretty mild. Light malts, cola, maybe a touch of smoke, hops. Flavor and body is thin but still quite good. The bitter hops come out more as well as some sour malts and nutty hints. Ibrew2or3 (2766), Safety Harbor, Florida, USA
| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 13/20 | Aug 3, 2007 Courtesy of Degarth. Pours brown with tan head. The aroma is sweet thin molasses, hints of coffee and caramel. Not really all that Porter like. Nice malty flavors like roasted malts, a hint of sweeter malts, coffee, an oatmeal twang, hints of caramel, light astringency and not much in the way of classic Porter burnt malts. bubbleflubber (898), Collinsville, Virginia, USA
| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Jul 31, 2007 Nice opaque, just shy of black pour. Deepest ruby hues when held to the light. A 3-finger frothy brown head sits afloat, but diminishes quickly, leaving sticky lace. Deep mocha chocolate nose, with some roasted grains nicely mixed in. Sweet on the front palate, with mocha, bittersweet chocolate and roasted grain leading congruently to a nicely roasted bitter back. Body is smooth, but the mouthfeel is a little (and just a little) thin for the style. Everything comes together well, and makes for an easy pull. Not bad, one of the better Highland offerings.
