Taste is watery with caramel and chocolate notes. Aftertaste is the best part with a caramel coating to the mouth. Kevin (1918), Colorado, USA

Sweet coffee, smoke and malt flavor with a mild hops finish. On the weak side palate-wise. Would really love this beer if it had a bit stronger flavor. jah noth (1020), Rochester, New York, USA
| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Dec 15, 2005 Fruity coffee aroma with bitter chocolate. Flat, deep red pour. Lots of bitter chocolate in the flavor, a little cappucino, balanced by some herbal hops. Lingering coffee syrup flavor. Not too bad. Thanks to TAR. RooftopRogue (423), Champaign, Illinois, USA
| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 1/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 14/20 | Dec 11, 2005 The aroma consists of the following fragrances: chocolate, oak, oatmeal, and coffee. A dark brown color with a gigantic head. Gigantic head is putting it lightly this beer has so much carbonation that only the amount held in the neck of the bottle bubbled up such much that it looked like a sponge had been stuffed in the glass. This beer enters the mouth with a smooth light chocolate coffee taste. The coffee taste increases after swallowing and lingers for a while. hippie4beer (162), Indianapolis, Indiana, USA

| 2.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 4/10 | 3/5 | 5/10 | 3/5 | 8/20 | Sep 6, 2005 Way too thin and watery for a good porter. Flavors were roasted malt; toffee and milk chocolate, with some sugar and roasted nuttiness. All sounds better than it was.
