Oct 15, 2006 Not too bad for the price. Kinda like a light stout treading into porter territory. Easy drinking. Smells great and goes down smooth. Definitely getting some roasted coffee flavors that disappear quickly. Doesn’t leave a whole lot on the palate, but that’s not always a bad thing. Very drinkable, albeit a little average tasting. Decided to try it because when I go to Ballast Point for growlers fills, I occasionally get their "Black Eye" which is half Black Marlin Porter and half Big Eye IPA.

Aug 15, 2006 Bottle. Wasn’t sure when I saw that it was really cheap, 2.50 a bottle. I was suprised, but didn’t really expect how malty it wounded up being. Nice malt flavor though.

Aug 7, 2006 So I had this after a slew of drain pours, but I still really enjoyed it. Tasted like a stout, but easier to drink. From bomber thanks to beastiefan2k. Very dark pour with tan head. Nose is roasted malt with a sweet rosted flavor. Palate was very appealing. Nice.
