| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 13/20 | Feb 29, 2004 Very good brewpub Porter and my choice for a pint from the four I sampled. Dark, ruby red to black pour with good mocha colored head and lacing. Has a chocolately aroma, with some hoppy bitterness coming through. The flavor has elements of coffee interlaced with the chocolate and there is a bit of hoppy biitterness - almost vineous in nature that sits just right. Overall, a very good Porter. hopscotch (5518), Vero Beach, Florida, USA
| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Jan 3, 2004 Sparkling clear, mahogany ale. Small, creamy, khaki-colored head. Decent lacework and retention.
The nose is of milk chocolate, coffee and lots of other intertwined roasted notes.
Chocolate, coffee and grapefruit in the flavor.
Medium-bodied with a creamy mouthfeel and lively carbonation. Lengthy, toasted, mildly bitter, strawy finish. Refreshing and very drinkable. thedm (3836), Fort Wayne, Indiana, USA
| 3.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 4/5 | 13/20 | Dec 16, 2003 TheDM and Hotstuff vacation brew 38. This draft brew was enjoyed at the brewery in Jacksonville Florida. This brew poured a large sized head of foamy fine-large sized mostly lasting bubbles that left behind a transparent uncarbonated brown colored body and a good lace. The aroma was that of a milf brown malt and the mouthfeel was smooth and tingly. The flavor was that of a medium strength brown malt. Oakes (8115), Kowloon, Hong Kong

Of those, only the regular blond and this weren’t butter bombs. So I tasted this one only. Dark brown. Lightly chocolatey aroma. It’s thin, but it has a nice smokey accent that really helps it out. bu11zeye (5621), Frisco, Texas, USA
