| 4.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 3/5 | 18/20 | Jan 21, 2007 22 oz bottle. Almost black with a big, foamy tan head. Chunks of lace. Bittersweet chocolate, coffee, leather and molasses. Quite fizzy with more chocolate and coffee. Hops come through a bit in the finish. Very balanced for such a rich brew. Yum!

| 4.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 5/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 18/20 | Jan 21, 2007 2006 bomber. Black with a whopper of a brown head. The head disintegrates rockily, making for a very pretty beer. Big bitter chocolate and coffee nose, a bit roasty, some citrusy grapefruit hop components. Big bitter chocolate and grapefruit flavors, softly malty. SAtin mouthfeel. Excellent. moejuck (1172), Ohio, USA
| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Jan 17, 2007 Can’t believe I haven’t had this yet...Hoppy aroma with hints of coffee. Black in appearance with a thin brown head. The palate is medium to thin with flavors of coffee and cream and a slight hop taste. Not a ton of bitterness--but more of an actual hop taste. Interesting. verymerrymonk (257), Cincinnati, Ohio, USA
| 4.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 9/10 | 4/5 | 9/10 | 4/5 | 17/20 | Jan 15, 2007 Pour is a deep brown with a small head. That’s the only thing small about this beer though. Aroma and flavor contain lots of hops, roasted coffee, and chocolate. Very bitter for a porter. Absolutely delicious, but too expensive. nhorween (641), Chicago, Illinois, USA
| 3.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | Jan 13, 2007 Bottle, Thanks Sersdf. Espresso black pour with a thin beige head. Coffee, chocolate, bananas, toasted malts, hops, mellow... Roasty, bitter, flavor, some hops. Balanced, but not hugely complex. Best part of this beer is the finish, its huge, long, and bitter. Very nice beer, as all 3 Floyds are, but not my favorite. spector (906), Lancaster, Ohio, USA

| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Jan 6, 2007 Dark pour. Smokey aroma with slight coffee notes. Nice hop presence in taste. Different than I expected and very good. RedXIII (127), Powell, Ohio, USA
| 3.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Jan 4, 2007 Interesting brew. Not at all like traditional porters. Pour is nice and black, with an aroma of chocolate, coffee, and a hint of hops. Surprisingly there was alot of hops in the taste. Hops and coffee, with a strikingly bitter taste and finish. Too hoppy for a porter but good, big taste none the less. I like my porters alittle more creamy, thick and coffee flavored, but this beer certainly gets points for originality.
