"This porter is decent. It is dark brown in color with a hazelnut aroma, a rich, nutty flavor and a smooth, malty finish. The mouthfeel is tremendous and and finishes great. The flavor also is creamy and full of hops and not overpowering. Overall, this beer is awesome and very tasty and very easy to drink. It almost tastes like a creamy, nutty piece of candy."

"Nutty sweet, and a little sprinkle of coffe on the finish. Dark brown colour, and the intial taste is a little malty, and then it dissipates quickly. "

[3] Review by Bitte Ein Bit from Bristol, CT, USA who has tried this beer once. (4/1/2006 7:23:52 PM)
"A dark brown brew with hints of red when held in the light. A tan head met the top of the glass and slowly faded away to a thick lace. Aroma is of malt and nuts, a hint of coffee and caramel maybe mixed in. Taste is a bitter up front with the coffee/nut flavor then going to a tad sweet from the malt and leaving a bitter dry but crisp finish.
This is one (imho) of those “transitional brews to start someone on. It is good enough to drink all night but I wouldn’t go out of my way to buy it again.

"A pretty average, but good and accessable porter. I can't say I picked up on any of the hazelnut, not in aroma nor in the mouth. Plenty dark, a nice ruby red hue with a cap of head and slight lace. Coffee and burnt aroma, hop and grain bitterness, all pretty standard and rather subdued. Not exciting, not offensive."
