Brown, opaque, with a rapidly disappearing head. The aroma is slightly roasted, a bit chocolatey, with a rather faint nutmeg note. The body is okay, but I was hoping for a more viscous finish, negligible carbonation, and a warming, spicy finish. The taste has a touch of roastiness and chocolate, but lacks toffee and all the other ingredients on the label. This porter didn't live up to my expectations, considering its name.

330ml can via Beer52. Poured into my Gordons thistle shaped glass at home, late on 2nd December 2025 (my 72nd Birthday), last beer of the day. Black with a beige top. Toffee/caramel and liquorice like aroma and taste. Good end of the festivities.
