<b>Bottle</b>: Dark brown, deep ruby hightlights, large frothy beige head, spotty lacing.   Soft soy and smoked aroma.   Pale Rauchbier and/or Schwarzbier on the tongue.   Very slight lactose like sweetness at the finish.   This porter feels average, certainly not the "robust porter" that it claims.   Seems to make a better Schwarzbier or Smoked than a Porter.   Thanks <b>Matt</b>. <br /><br />

Dark black colour, thin head, very fizzy, burnt malt flavour predominates, long finish with a lingering bitterness.

Very dark brown with a ruby tint and a thin brown head. Chocolatey aroma. Flavour is quite chocolatey, malted milk, and a bit of toast. Creamy cocoa flavour with no roastiness. Quite good, if decidedly simple.

Bottle. Dark maple with a hint of blood and little head...nose of roasty grain, just a touch of dark chocolate, and perhaps some soap...body lightly sweet, clean, brown sugar/caramel and cola...dry and too-carbonated finish.

Poured from the tap from the pub at the brewery. A very dark black colour, but had no head at all. Aroma was of coffee, not very hoppy. Taste matched the aroma, again of roasted coffee. However, also taste slightly watery and again for this pub seemed too carbonated.
