If you’re going to build something, build it sturdy. This porter is a solid refuge against the elements, with plenty of roasty malts and a cosy, warming body. Hopped with East Kent Goldings, Styrian Golding, and Fuggles, it packs a balancing bitterness with a charming English accent

(Can) Hreat looking beer - black with big tan head. Aroma is dark roast malt with notes of chocolate, toast and yeast. Medium body with good carbonation. Great taste. Dark roast malt with a burnt sugar bitterness that is subtle at the start but gradually grows through the palate. Chocolate. Very good.

Smells a little like a block of Cadbury hazelnut milk chocolate, with some slightly burnt toast as well. Palate is slightly thinner than I'd like, but the flavour is nice - toast, nuts and chocolate, with some light citrusy bitterness as well.

Can. Very dark brown with a good cm of light tan head. Aroma of choc-malt, light roast, spices. Smooth textured and just medium bodied. A little brioche sweetness, then firmer than guessed roast and a nice ping of bitterness, citrus peel and pepper. Enough going on and very drinkable.
