[2] Review by Crockett from Toronto, Canada who has tried this beer once. (5/8/2005 3:29:11 PM)
"Pours deep mahogony with a slight haze. Firm creamy off white head. Sweetly spice with aromas of dried fruits, prunes (for sure), and a modest chocolate. Heavy on malts. Alcohol has faded away. Initially roasty and full of caramel with burnt wooden tobacco flavours. Softened quickly into more chocolate and earthy malts. Body is creamy and lightly carbonated. Nots as much punch as I would have expected from a beer of this style. Long but somewhat washed out finish."

[3] Review by Vac from San Diego, California, USA who has tried this beer once. (6/19/2003 12:38:08 PM)
"Pours with a reddish-brown body topped by a medium thick lasting head with some lace. not very dark for a porter. Sweet fruity (apples?) malt aroma with caramel and a slight hint of alcohol. Sweet malt flavor with caramel and fruity notes and a slight bitterness from hops. Full bodied, tingly and a touch dry. This beer reminds me more of an English strong/old ale or a scottish ale than a porter. "
