Once again MacTarnahan's redefines "smooth". Striking a perfect balance between the classic Northwest and Celtic styles, Blackwatch is a remarkably distintive new style of porter. With expert use of malted barley, unmalted grains and oatmeal, Blackwatch Cream Porter delivers unforgettable rich taste and smooth texture.

"Very solid stout. I have had many stouts that are so robust that it makes them hard to drink. But this one was a little different. I don't want to say watery, but it had way more "drinkability" than most other stouts. Drinkable and very affordable. Good beer. worth drinking if you like stouts"

[2] Review by Phishpond417 from Madtown, Wisc, USA who has tried this beer once. (9/5/2007 6:47:19 PM)
"Pours an opaque colour with a medium sized vanilla coloured head. Has aromas of roasted nuts and oak. Has a mouthfeel that is lighter with a silky finish. Tasted plenty of nuttiness once again, cocoa and coffee. Overall, very nice beer."

[4] Review by RedHaze from Bellevue, NE, USA who has tried this beer once. (1/14/2007 1:12:28 PM)
"Pours black with some ruby notes around the edges. There's a thin head that quickly diapears some mild lacing.
Smells are all subdued: Chocolate, some coffee, and not much else going on.
Taste mild chocolate, and coffee, rather mild for this style. There's a very thin mouthfeel to this beer that is not very satisfying.
There's just not that much going on with this beer. Smell does get slightly better as it gets warmer, but that's about it. Drinkabilty is decent due to the fact that the flavors are mild, and there's very little bitterness present."

[5] Review by Clash from Chattanooga, TN, USA who has tried this beer once. (1/8/2007 11:59:16 PM)
"A pitch black appearance with a moderate beige head. The aroma is milk, coffee, and chocolate. The flavor is somewhat bitter and very smooth with a lot of coffee, chocolate, and milk same as the aroma would lead you to believe. A creamy mouthfeel but slightly chalky at the end. Overall this is a nice simple porter. "
