Deep ruby color when held up to the light, with an attractive brown head that leaves good lace. Nice roasted grain nose. Heavy roasted coffee bean flavor. Smooth mouthfeel. Good porter.

ruby red color; huge head, everlasting lace; smokey aroma leads to smokey taste, very malty--i miss chocolate aspects of other porters.

Nice dark-brown body with small tan head. Aroma is coffee, medium sweet. Taste is coffee-chocolate malty, medium sweet, with mild bitterness in finish. Palate is creamy, and fairly thick for a porter.

Very good porter, smooth and nicely malted. It has a bit of an aftertaste, maybe due to the hops.

Small head, ruby-black colored. Roasty aroma. Hops are bitter in the middle and leave a slight aftertaste. Chocolate and/or black malt flavor detected. A bit too dry for my taste. I prefer a little sweeter porters.

This is a pretty decent porter. Very straight forward. Very dark, almost black. Tan head with decent retention. Nice roasted, malty flavor. This is a good porter but still not my favorite.

A descent porter. Dark, a descent amount of choco flavor is apparent. Not a great aftertaste, but still descent overall.

Average head with dark brown appearance. Weak, yet roasty aroma. Smoke and chocolate in the flavor. Finish is watery and slightly bitter. I"m not all that impressed with this one.
