1 qt jug pours brilliant clear amber (not a Porter like look to me) and one inch tan head. The aroma I get caramel, crystal malts and nuttiness to go along with a mild note of astringency. As it warmed just a bit I start to get some butteriness out of the nose. Hmm. The taste is thin but has some modest flavor. I get mild nuttiness moving toward a roasty note and then evening out a bit with just a dab of caramel. It seems to end with a pleasant burnt maltiness that wraps things up nice and neat.

Jug: Poured a brown with a reddish tint to the edges, head is a creamy off white. The aroma is a mix of grass, cardboard, light skunk butt, and malt. Taste is bubblegum, malts, and a bit harvest tint at the end.

Pours a brown color similar to coca-cola with a small head with good retention and a little lacing. The aroma is malty, thats just about it. Maybe some slight brown sugar and spice. The taste is sweet and malty with a poke at some spice of some sort, but really not much going on here. The mouthfeel is light and watery.

Great novelty bottle, not bad flavor, but MUD it is not. Body is rather thin, color is sort of a light cola color that is a bit see-through. Grab a bottle when your on vacation so nobody you really know sees you buying it!

Got to love this bottle, even before I was into beer this bottle always caught my eye and now many years later I still like it. Dark brown body that is still clear with lots of red shining through. Smell is mild and smells like beer with possibly some black cherry and or cranberry coffee is also noticeable but barely. Taste is much the same but with some mild hops that gives the brew a very crisp taste. Coffee plumbs light roasted malts can all be tasted. The light taste makes this brew highly drinkable I think I like this beer.

a bit of an inbetween beer in quality and price (between macro & quality micro)...a little thin, roasted flavors but a little weakish. good beer as an intro to craft beer.

This porter black and tan is better than most "cheap" black & tans I've had. The aroma of grain and oak (not sure if that is the best description) was pleasant while pouring. The color is deep and rich. The brew felt a bit watery in the mouth, but provided a decent flavor. Overall, a beer I will revist when I want a neat jug and a cheap black and tan.

Been a while since I had this beer......something like 15 years, so saw this recently which reminded me to review. I sort of want to grab one so I can review it with a fresh update, but I have a feeling that I would semi-regret it afterwards. Until I do I'll just have to go on old memories. It really isn't a bad beer though, used to get it for camping trips, etc. Has a dark, muddy appearance with a typical black and tan/porter taste....maybe something like a thicker Yuengling Black & Tan. A decent "budget" dark beer. Will probably buy a 32 oz. to take on my next camping festival so I can update this rating.
