Dublin Porter. The blending of malted and unmalted barley produces a dark, rich and velvety smooth ale. Notes of chocolate, tobacco and espresso.

A quite nice and easy drinkable porter. Opaque black color with a dense tan head. Lovely lacing down the sides of the glass. Mostly coffe, roasted and some chocolate. Absolutely recommendable.

On tap at JW Sweetman, pours a deep dark brown with a reddish tinge and a small tan head. Nose brings out powdery dry cocoa and toasted malt. Flavour is along the same lines, with toasted malt and a touch of powdery dry cocoa. Pleasant enough, but pretty boring and unexciting. Not bad but nothing overly interesting.
