Mar 20, 2008 Pours like black coffee with a huge tan head. Excellent aroma of sweet malty coffee with a little bittersweet chocolate. Taste follows suit with a sweet, malty chocolate, followed by a medium espresso body that fades smoothly like light cream.

Mar 19, 2008 Small head pours to aromas of chocolate, coffee and molasses. Flavors mirror the aroma. Nice beer, mouthfeel might be a tad thin, but very very good.

Mar 16, 2008 Not much head when I poured this out of the bottle (i love the light blue color on this Rogue bottle.) Fairly good porter. Plenty chocolate and coffee flavor. Has a slight smell of smoke. A full body taste. Strong bitter aftertaste.

Mar 16, 2008 Im glad I purchased this, drinking now...Poured a very nice cloudy brown with tan head with ok retention.....Seemed to have a lighter aroma then what I had expected, nice chocolate malt presence. Flavor was very nice....dark roast, chocolate roast, and some bittering hops.....full mouth feel with the advertised creamy finish. Very good!

Mar 15, 2008 12 oz. into a pint glass. It appears a healthy delicious black with a soft, foamy, light tan head. It has basic dark porter aromas, but with a nice hint of vanilla. The palate is somewhat watery, but overall the beer leaves a rich and smokey impression on your palate. The flavor seemed to get better as I drank it; it exhibited strong coffee and burnt malt flavors with the nose and finished with subtle but robust vanilla and caramel flavors. This beer, though not worth the 11 dollars I payed for the 6 pack, is worth trying at some point, especially if you can find it on tap.

Mar 14, 2008 Pours a dark black with a thin soapy head. Aroma is musty with some funky sweet chocolate. Taste is smooth and carbonated, some chocolate, and some dry roasted coffee grounds. A bit too much cardboard in the taste.
