| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Sep 20, 2004 Dark Brown, huge tan head that settles down fairly quickly. Toast and smoke on the aroma, and a nice malty flavor. A hint of maple flavor throughout, with just a hint of hop dryness at the finish. Not bad - thanks Springslicker!

| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Jul 18, 2004 This pours almost black with a gigantic mocha colored head that seethes and writhes!
The aroma of this beast is dark caramel with a hint of maple and smoke. I’m going to have to wait for this head to die down so I can taste it!
The taste is sweet with a nice roast bitterness that finishes sweet. Body is a little thin, but htis is very drinkable and not a bad change of pace. IPFreely (1470), Lewiston, New York, USA
| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Jul 13, 2004 Brown with lighter brown head. Aroma was pretty roasty along with some caramel/maple sweetness. Smokiness fades a little in the flavor but is still noticable, some caramel sweetness. A little lighter bodied but smooth and doesn’t detract too much. I’d drink again. haddon90 (1036), Alexandria, Virginia, USA

| 3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | May 2, 2004 (Draught) Pours a thin, almonde head and a deep reddish body. Nose of roasted malt. Flavour is far too sweet. Bland and without imagination. jah noth (1020), Rochester, New York, USA
| 2.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 5/10 | 2/5 | 10/20 | Apr 30, 2004 Very roasted aroma. Thin and dark plum in color. Sugary sweetness is balanced by some strong roasted malts. Very watery and pedestrian. MartinT (5068), Montreal, Quebec, Canada
| 2.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 4/10 | 3/5 | 4/10 | 2/5 | 9/20 | Apr 29, 2004 Rum-spiked light roastiness which communicates its bitterness...Puny malt which lacks depth...Where’s the maple?...Way too easy for a porter and not interesting enough to be a worthy novelty item...Reach for Saranac’s Caramel Porter to see how interesting a sweet porter can get... mkobes (2104), paramus, New Jersey, USA
