Oct 25, 2009 500ml bottle from grape & gourmet. pours a deep, dark brown, damn near black with a half-inch, dark khaki head and great lacing. aroma is excellent with big, roasted dark malts, coffee, bitter chocolate, dried black cherry, figs, and a touch of smoke. flavor is simply outstanding with pure dark chocolate covered cherries and fresh, roasted coffee up front backed by big, roasted malts, fresh roasted almonds, vanilla, dried figs, and ashy, smoked wood leaving a lingering, bittersweet roasted/smoked finish. palate is full bodied, rich, and slightly sticky with moderated carbonation. overall, this one hell of a good porter, best i’ve had to date, and a bit underrated in my humble opinion.

Oct 5, 2009 Pours black with reddish brown highlights, a thick light brown head. Aroma of roasted malt, espresso coffee, bitter, dark chocolate, dried dark fruits. Nicely balanced flavour, much the same as the aroma, with some nuts, vanilla and vague smoke, with a nice hop bitterness in the finish, quite dry. Solid porter.

Oct 2, 2009 Dark tootsie roll/Coca Cola like in color with a thick tan head. Looks unfiltered when held before light. I’m finding chocolate and espresso in the aroma along with some vanilla. Body is medium and only a bit oily. Nice roasted malt flavor that is really rounded out well. A liitle sweet and a little bitterness adds to the complexity with a reallt nice finish.
