| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Nov 14, 2004 Pours a pitch-brown color with very little light coming through, a huge tan khaki head rests on top and threatens to stay there for the duration. Aroma is very sweet, with roasted malts and alcohol present. Flavor is sweet, dark fruit, roastiness, back to some dark fruit, and a clean, dry coffee finish. A great showing. chriso (4796), London, Greater London, England
| 3.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Nov 10, 2004 I really enjoyed this porter. Rich roasted coffee and licorice, with bitter chocolate in the background. Some berry fruit too. Smooth and satisfying. Dry finish. 500ml bottle from Richs Cider farm shop.

| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 5/5 | 6/10 | 2/5 | 15/20 | Oct 26, 2004 Bottle Pours a dark brown with a massive thick light tan head that when it finally subsides leaves thick sticky lacing down the sides. Aromas are mostly chocolate, coffee, a little smoke and a bit of grape jelly. Flavor is very mild and soft. Carbonation is fine but quite strong and makes it taste like foam. Gets in the way a bit. Feel otherwise is a bit thin but pleasant. Finish is where the smokeyness comes through for me. A bit plain, but pretty good and at 4.5%, 500ml will do just fine. BückDich (4854), McCall, Idaho, USA
| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 3/5 | 8/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Oct 26, 2004 Bottle: Roasted blood brown with lots of thin carbonation, no lacing. Nose of light smoke, roast & chocolate, quite a bit of roast for a porter. Tastes nutty like pretzels and light fruits with most roast & caramel. Creamy acidic porter, quite tasty. omhper (12247), Stockholm, Sweden
