| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Nov 27, 2009 12oz bottle. Pours a deep brown black color with a patchy beige head. The aroma is malty with just a touch of sour tartness. Medium bodied, a very easy drinker, which achieves a pretty balance between the sweet dark malt and the light hops. Roasty, with some cocoa tastes. A pretty nice beer, a little underwhelming in body, but still quality. triguy84 (69), Fitchburg, Wisconsin, USA
| 4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 17/20 | Nov 9, 2009 Pours a dark brown with a brown-ish light head. Aroma has hints of chocolate and roasted malts, no hops. Flavor is like the aroma but has a sourness to it, more suptle than the New Glarus Porter, but it is there. Medium-heavy, no way to drink a lot of these in one sitting. I really like this. daknole (3027), Scottsdale, Arizona, USA
| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Oct 26, 2009 Dark brown pour with a tan head. Aroma is full of roasty chocolate and light hops. Flavor is roasty and has some nice chocolate notes. A bit underrated IMO. ucusty (1915), Wake Forest, North Carolina, USA
| 2.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 5/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Oct 24, 2009 Brown pour with copper-ish hues. Coffee on the nose. Really light roast with flavors of chocolate, hops, and toffee. At least it was not metallic one16thamish (4), Colorado, USA does not count | 2.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 4/5 | 5/10 | 3/5 | 10/20 | Oct 10, 2009 This beer is ok. Tastes slightly dirty and there is nothing special about it. Barely a head at all, no lacing. arkurzynski (101), West Bend, Wisconsin, USA
| 3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 5/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Sep 27, 2009 Pours red/black. Thin tan head. Light coffee aroma with a little fruitiness. Roasted malt flavor. Dry and bitter aftertaste. I’m not a huge porter drinker, nonetheless, this one is just ok. danielcurtis81 (913), San Diego, California, USA

12 oz bottle picked up at FUBOB’s. Appearance is a lighter deep brown. Nose is pale malt?! Flavor is a lightly intense sweet caramel. Lack of roasted flavors is questionable. Mouth is very dry. This one got a little too close to the IU locker room!

| 2.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 4/10 | 2/5 | 7/20 | Sep 10, 2009 Dan’s Bachelor Party Extended Weekend Rating #19 of 90. Bottle Dan picked up at parti pak while out here (thanks). Pours black with red edges. Nose is roasted malt, some chocolate and toffee, though minimal. I don’t think the hops blended too well in this one, a little sour and stale. Could be the handling or shelflife...more like Elmer’s Bad Porter.
