Aug 9, 2006 Black body, huge creamy beige head, laces; Huge nose with a huge amount of cold coffee, milk chocolate, but at the same time it has something thin and malty to it; Watery textured body, thin sharp carbonation, balanced to watery bitter side; The finish is to short, a little and acidy, some aromas as nose just simpler. Thanks to radiomgb for hauling it to Denmark.

Aroma holds roasted malt, chocolate and coffee witht he latter being very concentrated. The body pours dark brown, but settles black and holds a two finger thick tan head which quickly compresses to pinky thickness. Fore is all coffee with mild chocolate in the middle and a sustained roastiness throughout. It’s on the thin side of the porter style, but the roastiness is such that it gives it a thickerfeel/taste than the body alone would. Has a nice roundness in the finish that is more a cocoa and cream coffee. Tasty if basic flavor wise.

Pours a dark, dirty oil colour, with a small brown head. Smells mainly of hops with a mild coffee aroma. Taste is primarily coffee, with an aftertaste of.. coffee. One of those beers you will love or hate. And i love it.

Jun 10, 2006 Beige-brown head, over near black beer with vermillionred highlights, heavily carbonated. Dry ground coffee, coffee sweets, moccha, moccha ice. Anything but beer. Very sweet initially, chocolate-coffee, as a coffee sweetened by somebody who doesn’t like coffee. Hold it, then I ought to like it - but I don’t. Finishes drier, at least, whilst starting to display some adstringency. Aftertaste is dry coffee, bitter, circle closed. Rather well-bodied. Not my cup of coffee.

Jun 4, 2006 Pours pitch black with a beige head. Aroma is heavy on the coffee with hints of chocolate. Taste is a good balance of the above with a bit of brown sugar as well. Finishes nice with overtones of hops. A great dessert beer to be sure.

May 26, 2006 Updated: Aug 3, 2006 A great porter. I love the strong taste of coffee and dark chocolate in the after taste.

May 22, 2006 Bottle from Paul (blankboy) Thanks! Pours out black as coal with a tan head. Smells of coffee, malts, and hops. Also has a sweet smell that fills the immediate area around me. Taste is heavy on the coffee side, in fact it feels like I am drinking a cold cup of coffee. Reminds me alot of Bells Java, though not as good, it is still excellent. My glass disappeared way too quick.
