| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Jan 16, 2008 Pours deep brown with decent light brown tan foam. Aroma is floral with a slightly smoky character. Flavor is malty, with coffee and a bit of salt. Palate is a watery and average for this style. This is not bad and would be a good accompaniment for Mexican cuisine. swampstander (9), Palestine, Texas, USA does not count | 4.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 9/10 | 4/5 | 18/20 | Jan 14, 2008 Pours almost black with a tan head. Aroma of toasted nuts and caramel. Flavor is a mixture of malty chocolate, coffee and toffee, slightly sweet with a hint of smokiness. Very nice.

Tastes better as it warms. A little too sweet at first, then alcohol warms the mouth and throat. A 1st class porter from our friends across the pond. Anglofile (135), Piti, Guam

| 2.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 4/10 | 4/5 | 5/10 | 2/5 | 14/20 | Jan 4, 2008 Some very light roasty olfactory. Beautiful pour for a porter, very attractive plackish brown with a tan head. Barely any carbonation on the palate. Interesting roasty flavors, mild and well behaved. Some dark maly backround hints. Overall, less than I expected but still decently good. Would not hesistate to purchase again if the price was not so high. Did not detect much bitterness in this brew.
