| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 8/10 | 3/5 | 16/20 | Dec 10, 2007 Some banana & nuttiness in the aroma. Some nuttiness in the flavor as well. Full bodied, but a little too sticky in the mouth. Definitely a porter yet for some reason it sets itself apart from most other porters. grikmok (93), Fayetteville, Arkansas, USA

| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 16/20 | Dec 9, 2007 Too bad, I just missed being the 1000th rater of this brew. One of the ones from back in the dark ages. Dark brown black with ruby and mahogany highlights. Aroma of caramel and toffee, faint roast. Flavor is nutty, caramel, and chocolate. OK mouthfeel. Nice.

| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Dec 9, 2007 Aroma is a rich sweet wine like scent. Color is a solid black with a thin some what tight head. Taste is sweet and roasted. Starting with full body it goes down with a crisp feel. Finish comes out of the crispness with a thin sweet honey like flavor backed by a mild hop flavor and genteel bitterness. The after taste is sweet with a slight alcohol feel. Its not the best Porter I have ever had but its a tasty brew.
