Rating 7-4-6-4-12 Bottle, poured black with tan bubbles, roasted malt, sweet malt and chocolate aromas, light smoke and prune fragrances, small vanilla aroma, roasted and dark malt with sweet malt flavors, full mouth feel, chocolate on the tongue, faint alcohol in the background, some syrup sweet flavor, small bitterness in the finish, after taste does come off rather odd, its not dry on the palate. -------- have tasted some more of this, it has a sticky sickly sweetness that is bad, the sweetness is too much, the sweet over takes the roasted malts, the sweetness grows and is overpowering, I would not buy this again, re-rate 4-4-3-4-8

Dark brown, almost black with a quickly fading tan head. Aroma is sweet and fruity with floral notes. Sweet and smoky malt is absolutely dominant in the flavor. $2/500ml

500 ml bottle, poured in to a snifter. Malt, figs, vanilla and toffee in the aroma. Very nice. Sweet, smokey flavor with a medium body and lots of malt. Very drinkable. Alcohol gets a little hot as it warms up, but this is a real nice/subtle porter, especially for the price.

very dark garnet color with some nice dark tan foamy head and lace. VEry roasty dark fruity a bit yeasty aroma. Flavor is similar but more intense. Velvety mouth filling body. nice beer. drinkable. I’d have another. Cheers! From a bottle at the Bodega Brew Pub downtown La Crosse, Wisconsin.

Big bottle on sale at Sam’s Wine and Spirits. I’ve wanted to pick up a bottle of this for quite awhile, and I can’t pass up a sale at Sams. Brown black in color, tall soapy head, that fades down. Light aroma of chocolate and malt. Medium bodied and creamy with sweet chalky, chocolate, and some roasted flavors. This quickly becomes way too sweet and chalky, leaving a hint of alcohol in the throat. I was hoping for a little better.

WOW!! The sweet, malty aroma is evident from a few feet away. The head dissipates quickly, leaving a dark brown, nearly black, opaque brew. The taste is great. It tastes dark, with some alcohol on the tail end. Very smooth, with a nice bit of carbonation.

Pours opaque black with tan head. Roasted malt in the aroma. Flavor is of more roasted malt with strong alcohol coming through in the finish. Mouthfeel is round and smooth. Solid flavorful brew.
