Oct 7, 2005 Thanks to richlikebeer. Cocoa-colored head with an alcohol, hoppy smell with strong scents of coffee and chocolate. Head hugs the side of the glass. Taste licorice, chocolate. Slight hot edge aftertaste. Coffee taste lingers on the palate. Dark almost black color. One worth keeping around!

Oct 3, 2005 Bottle,thanks rich. Aroma of coffee and chocolate. Poured a nice deep black with tan head. Flavor was good chocolate, vanilla and caramel combined with nice grassy hops. Palate was oily and full that finished sweet and easy. Overall a nice treat indeed.

Oct 2, 2005 coffee and licorice coming out of the aroma, with a hint of chocolate. pours a solid black body with a thick coffee flavored head that breaks down into little islands that float on top. lots of chocolate with licorice,grass, some vanilla, and caramel that are blended perfectly. a slick body, pretty thick for a porter, coats the inside of your mouth and the sweet chocolates make up the bulk of the aftertaste. this was very nice, and i owe BierKonig much love for sending this over.

Sep 21, 2005 Pours a clear dark brown color with ruby highlights and a ring of light brown lace. Very attractive aroma of rich malt, chocolate, raisin, plums and figs. Excellent flavor of rich and slightly roasted malt with chocolate, raisin, plums and figs with a bitter finish. The body is medium with a slightly dry mouthfeel and moderate carbonation. This is a rich and complex beer, great stuff.
