    Description is bang on; great balance and depth, no coffee bitterness, doesn’t taste like a percolator filter! The chocolate combines to give a mocha effect. Very dark, great mouthfeel, SOOOO much better than the coffee porters I’ve had in the States. Recommended

    Alot of Porters claim to taste of Coffee, but thisnis the real deal! A very rich taste and aroma its like being in a coffee shop. I like it, could do with being marginally sweeter.

    As with all the Magic Rock beers I’ve tried, this is a really good beer. The coffee is definitely ramped up compared to other ‘coffee porter’ that I’ve tried. Not really any vanilla, but a lovely deep malty taste that I would buy again.

    One of the best porters I have tried recently. Difficult to add more notes since the highlights on the can perfectly describe the taste. It’s not sweet at all, makes it a perfect tipple for winter nights.

    Very nice beer, im easy going with beer and in general like most things, this is rich and decadent beer with a nice coffee and cream taste, I would enjoy this as single beer rather than having 4-5 cans of the stuff as it would get a bit much after more than 2. Very nice overall.

    Magic Rock make some great beers. This is dark, dark, dark like a metaphor for life. It’s got classic aromas of chocolate and burnt toast (either that or I’m having a stroke). It’s beautifully smooth and creamy with espresso and coffee bean flavours and a nice sweetness that isn’t too cloying. It’s a good beer.

     A really good coffee porter. Made with locally sourced coffee beans from Dark Woods, this gives the beer a very smooth finish and a great aroma. A combination of 7 coffees and 7 malts. Complex but very drinkable.

     Put simply it’s a coffee beer. Aroma and taste are dominated by coffee with a hint of vanilla and maybe chocolate.
