The palate is smooth and lightly carbonated. aubreya (676), Chapel Hill, North Carolina, USA

| 3.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 5/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | Mar 16, 2008 A big improvement on on the Baptista using the same Belgian yeast. I really like what some of these NC brewers are doing with the Baltic Porter style. First it was Duck Rabbit and now Pisgah! Sort of like a sweeter, less spicy Abbey Triple. asw4w (6), USA does not count | 4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 5/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 17/20 | Sep 28, 2007 very interesting beer. bottle from bruisin ales.

dark brown with ruby edges, wispy beige head, drippy lace, rich milk chocolate aroma with a touch of fruity sweetness to bring out the chocolate, rich chocolate flavor, nice milk chocolate sweetness, no bitterness allows the rich chocolate to dominate, this is what every chocolate porter wants to be,

the fruity character comes out really strong in the aroma and flavor to blend with the rich chocolate to create this special beer, a touch of hot alcohol fumes,

| 3.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Aug 1, 2007 Clear dark brown body under a thin off-white head.
Candy malt aroma with no hops.
Sweet, but it quickly becomes boring for lack of any complexity.
