| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 8/10 | 3/5 | 16/20 | Mar 11, 2006 Has a strong aroma that could be smelt as soon as I opened the bottle. The head dissapates very quickly leaving behind a dark chocolatey beer. Sweet smelling, has a chocolate finish. Smooth and light. I’ll drink it again. ElJefe (553), Rochester, New York, USA
| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 2/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Feb 28, 2006 Dark brown with a small off-white head with dissapated quickly. Sweet aroma of maple syrup. Roastiness in the fore, along with maple syrup and molasses, but it’s a tad tart as well. A pretty decent porter. jerc (3945), Toronto, Ontario, Canada
| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Feb 11, 2006 Bottle. Black body with a large fluffy tan head. (4+) Nutty roast aroma is dry, not really coffee or chocolate like. Dry woody roast flavour is almost smokey like food cooked over a campfire. Light bittereness is almost tart and lingers long into the aftertaste. Light chocolate notes make brief cameos under the dry superceding roast. Medium palate, dry finish grabs at the back of the throat. Interesting beer, but not really up my alley. Too roasty and dry. Thanks for Lou18 for the chance to try it!

| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Dec 13, 2005 bottle-pours dark brown with a nice soapy beige kacki head. aromatically, this beer sticks out a little-nutty quality, like a butterfinger (chocolate included), chocolate pheonols, coffee, light oxidization, chlorine water, caramel, oil, and light roast. flavors are sharp lactic roast, char, expresso, roasted nuts, chocolate. a pretty good proet with quite a bit of complexity (both good and bad), body is a little flimsy but does a good job delivering the flavors. a much needed improvement over that passover garbage beer they make! jdjuice (203), Japan
| 2.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 3/5 | 4/10 | 2/5 | 12/20 | Nov 30, 2005 It smells good, roasty, like a nice porter. Looks ok, dark with normal head. Has decent flavors, roasty and malty, but the mouthfeel is very watery and not smooth at all. The finish is dominated by a weird sour bitterness that isn’t particularly pleasant. Not terrible, but there are definitely better choices than this. AdamSkillin (376), High Bridge, New Jersey, USA
| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Nov 14, 2005 Toffee in the nose, raisins in the mouth. Porter is my #1 absolute favorite beer style, so I’m pretty picky, and this is a good one. Not good with food, but a great dessert beer. Far better than I expected. Nice. Toffee and raisins, malty with more than enough hops for a porter, very delicious, grab it if you can get it. Jine (896), Nutley, New Jersey, USA
| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 14/20 | Nov 14, 2005 12 oz bottle. Spectaculous little porter from the people up Route 17. I’m very impressed with Ramapo on this porter. Very roasty. Lots of toffee. I was surprised. rudolf (1775), Buffalo, New York, USA
| 3.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 5/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Oct 17, 2005 Very deep ruby - neary black with an tannish head. The nose has lots of chocolate - almost a malted milkshake. I also smell toffee and some nice chocolaty hops. Chocolate continues into the flavor but is almost unpleasently bitter. Some cherry, milkiness, toffee.
