| 4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 9/10 | 5/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 16/20 | May 27, 2004 On tap at the Cricketeer’s Arms in The Mercado in Orlando. This is served in the tradition of Real Ale at a warmer temperature and pulled from a hand engine. Extremely dark black in color with a fluffy pale head. Must have a lot of black patent malt in there. Great coffee and roasty aroma. Burnt flavor that is indeed quite dry. This is a very fine porter served in a town that does not know good beer. Seek this one out, pilgrim. Forget the Mouse. crizay (1050), Brook Park (was Tampa,FL), Ohio, USA

Great very different porter, I’ve never had a dry porter it was like guiness meets a damn good dark beer. Very smooth and easy to drink, mainly a coffee and dark chocolate flavor with some hop bitterness. NYHarvey (2154), New York, New York, USA

It is indeed chock full of coffee, toffee, coffee, chocolate and roasty notes. very dry finish and as I can readily attest HIGHLY drinkable.
Great stuff. Beershine (2754), Traipsing Around, Cambodia
| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 14/20 | Feb 15, 2009 Sample @ brewery taproom. Opaque black-brown. Great smokey aroma is super toasty and very rich. Low carbonation. A little burnt in the flavors but that adds some dryness. A nice sessionable tipple. Fantomas23 (463), Pewaukee, Wisconsin, USA
| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 14/20 | Dec 8, 2006 I think, by far, the best beer at OBP. Deep brown with a tan head. Robust coffee and chocolate flavors. Slightly oily palate that suits it quite well. Well-bittered on the back end. If I said that it was the best porter brewed locally, I wouldn’t be lying.
