Jun 27, 2008 I really, really like this porter. I think Samuel Smith is an excellent brewery in general but this Porter is really a tasty treat.

Jun 12, 2008 Bottle. Color is almost black, with a frothy, brown head. Aroma is earthy, a mixture of coffee and chocolate, maybe also raisin or prune. Taste is complex: coffee, caramel, dark chocolate, and licorice. There are smoky elements to the taste and aroma as well.Very smooth, slightly bitter, but not very dry. Pleasant aftertaste and very drinkable. Delicious.

Jun 12, 2008 Samuel Smith’s Taddy Porter is a black ale with red overtones. The head is huge and fluffy, has excellent retention and leaves great lacing on the glass. The aroma is slightly sweet-- a bit like burnt toffee. It is pretty full bodied and soft on the tongue. The flavor is strong, well balanced and complex. There are notes of toffee, leather, roasted malt and peat. It is very English and tastes like a dimly lit pub. It’s an excellent porter that I would never confuse with any other.

Jun 3, 2008 Pours a dark brown, nearly black with a very thick tan head. Aroma is very sweet and roasted chocolate malt. Flavor is very crazy chocolate, nutty and a bit of of a tart bitterness in the finish. Smooth and full-bodied, with a creaminess that leaves me feeling full and satisfied.

Jun 2, 2008 Pours a deep dark chocolate brown colour. This beer was very smooth and rich, yet not too filling. Very impressive mouthfeel and pleasent aromas of espresso beans, toffee and almonds. Taste was nutty, semi sweet with an off dry finish.
