Flavor is semi-sweet chocolate and roasted malts. Also many notes of coffee. A fair hop finish. Palate is medium bodied and about right for a porter. Very drinkable and definitely worth a try..

| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 12/20 | Nov 13, 2004 Good head and really deep color. Some lacing to it. Kind of an earthy chocolate undertone to the sweetness, with a nice touch of bitterness to it. Not one of my favorites, but still a good brew and I expect to drink a lot more of it. burgerlicious (308), Indianapolis, Indiana, USA
| 3.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | Aug 19, 2004 I do like porters, and this one is no exception, though it’s not exceptional either. much like the lable, it’s a bit generic. however, nursing a few next to a campfire on the shores of lake michigan is not a bad time at all.
