While still very dark, the porter was mare a very dark amber than black. Poured with a nice tan coloured head, which held right down the glass.
Not as smooth as the stronger Samuel Smith Imperial Stout, the Taddy porter has a roasy coffee flavour followed by a dryness across the palate. The malt flavors dominate this beer aetheon (64), Beer Dungeon, Minnesota, USA

Aroma is really roasted malts and a bit nutty. Flavor is nice and roasted but not burnt, also hints of sweet chocolate and silky smooth.

| 3.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Jan 13, 2009 My favorite from Samuel Smith I believe. Excellent flavor for a porter. Dark brown amber color with decent tan head. Dark fruits and chocolate aroma. A little tinge of caramel in the initial flavor. A great drink for the winter months.
