Jan 22, 2006 Big thanks to htsprint1 for sharing this baby with the League of Strange Beer Drinkers this month. Truly fine baltic porter (one of my favorite styles). Big roasted malt profile with it’s strong chocolate, coffee, ans caramel notes. big alcohol warming here. Nice smooth palate, despite it’s robust bitter hop presence in the aftertaste. Good!

Jan 18, 2006 Mahogany with a tan film & nice lacing. Aromas of chocolate, coffee & whisky. Flavor is somewhat hot & malted with a lagered persona. Additionally vinous & bitter late with a dirty mouthfeel. Interesting.

Jan 15, 2006 This is a great beer. I love dark beers especially porters. This porter is very smooth. I enjoy the coffee flavor in this beer. Definitely one of my best.

Jan 13, 2006 Pitch black pour with a nice creamy tan head. Very roasty aroma with a little coffee. I’m not smelling any chocolate. Very smooth body. Huge roast flavor without much else shining through.

Jan 10, 2006 Appreciated at the latest The LoSBD meeting: Dark brown with a firm and sustained brown head, this has a nicely blended aroma of roasted barley, caramel, chocolate, and bitter coffee (just like Mom used to make). Smooth. The flavor is roasted malt, caramel & toffee, rich coffee, and a solid hop bitterness. The finish is dry and warming. Nice. <font size=-4><a href=http://www.ratebeer.com/ViewUser.asp?UserID=1 Goody From htsprint1’s Backpack<font size=-1>

Dec 12, 2005 2003 Vintage: Poured a very deep mahogany color. Aroma of creamy chocolate and roasted malt. Flavor of both milk and bitter sweet chocolate. More roasted malt. Some hops on the finish. Dry chocolatey finish.

Dec 12, 2005 A black appearance with a beige head. The aroma is full of chocolate and oatmeal. The flavor is quite dry and almost burnt with some dark chocolate, coffee, and roasted malt standing out. The finish is quite bitter. Perhaps this should replace the shitty breakroom coffee at work.

Dec 5, 2005 Big thanks to ClarkVV for this 2004 bottle. Deep dark mohagany brew that exploded onto my counter. Burnt toffee and rich roasted malts dominate the aroma with some espresso. This is tasty: smooth blend of malts that isn’t overroasted so as not to push out the other flavor such as the rich roasted malts and a chocolate coffee mixture.
