Oct 18, 2007 355ml bottle from Utobeer. Very dark ruby colour with lasting thin beige head. Once you get through the overly upfront American hop, the aroma offers decent choc with slight coffee, but mostly it is chocolate. Smooth in mouth, slightly grainy in mouthfeel towards the end with decent choc flavours. Spritzy on the finish. But why would you put a lot of lime and grapefruit on a choccy porter? No idea and frankly nor does this beer. Nothing wrong with it. Just not a pale ale nor a porter.

Oct 10, 2007 Had this beer on 5/10/1999. Color is a deep dark brown with good carbonation and a light head. Aroma is a sweet roasted malt scent. Taste is smooth and sharp. It starts with a creamy feeling medium body as it goes down a lightly sharp dark roasted malt flavor comes on. The finish is this roasted flavor backed by a light hop bitterness. It’s a bit light for a Porter but is a very good roasted flavor brew.

Oct 7, 2007 Dark color. Smell of malt, coco powder, hops and that malt powder you mix with ice cream(I think malto milk?). Taste of roasted coffee, caramel, hops, malt, coco, Whoppers candy and honey.
