| 2.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 4/10 | 3/5 | 10/20 | Jan 26, 2006 Rich, complex aroma. Very warm flavour, which develops into a sort of dry, woody aftertaste which is quite pleasant. Besides that, not much else going for it. A little bit on the flat side. For my tastes, not bitter enough, not strong enough. Tastes thin. Tastes like other brews to come out of otter creek, but...not one of their better ones. A weaker beer and a disappointment.

| 3.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 5/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 16/20 | Jan 26, 2006 Un assé bon porter, riche, bon goût roti et d’épice. Dégusté à la Mondial de la Bière en 2005. Ron (1027), Rochester, New York, USA
| 3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 11/20 | Jan 25, 2006 One bottle from BOTW. Very dark brew with a think head. Hops in aroma. Roasted chocolate body with alittle too much hops for a porter. Slightly bitter ending. Cletus (5056), Connecticut, USA
| 3.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Jan 23, 2006 Pours brown with a tan head. Smells of chocolate and cookies. Taste is sweet with hints of spice and a peppery finish. LordNeuf (125), Acton, Massachusetts, USA
| 4.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 9/10 | 5/5 | 18/20 | Jan 20, 2006 Bottle. A near opaque dark cola red color. White lasting head, with a nose of carmel and coffee tones. Rich malty flavor with a well balance of hops that completes in a semi-dry finish of bitter hops and crystal malted hops lethe (168), Stony Brook by way of Cincinnati, New York, USA
| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 14/20 | Jan 17, 2006 Porter opaque with minimal white head. Nose is malt roastiness, grassy mustiness, and a light hop effervescance. Palate is slightly cloying and medium-bodied. Flavor is coffee roast that gives way to an earthy, peaty tone that is rounded out by hops that are lasting and bitter. Good complexity for a porter and has a nice interplay of malt/smoke/hops that attests to solid craft brewing. tmad (93), Dayton, Ohio, USA
