A cosy, indulgent porter perfect for winter evenings. Full Roast layers roasted walnut, rich chocolate, and fresh coffee to create a smooth, balanced beer that’s as comforting as it is complex. Soft cocoa and toffee sweetness round out the profile, while cold-brewed Yorkshire coffee adds depth and natural walnut brings a gentle praline warmth.
What our brewers has to say about it:
“This robust porter is crafted for easy drinking during the colder months, yet delivers a complex, full flavour. A strong malt bill, featuring Chocolate Wheat and brown malt, provides deep nutty roast and chocolate notes. Fuggles hops add a subtle spice, while cold-steeping on dark roast coffee beans infuses nutty, berry characteristics. The natural walnut flavour harmonises everything, creating a praline-like richness balanced by a strong hit of black coffee on the nose.”
Rich, indulgent, and perfectly balanced, Full Roast is your go-to for cosy evenings and slow sips.

Available on the Sunday at my local, but it is not referring to a Sunday Lunch! Amber-brown coloured sporting a light glow. Incredibly stated with chocolate, nut, honeycomb, spices - all of which should be overbearing but it works as a winter ale. This one is good fun. Its light in this respect aroma hides the surprise of the aforementioned.
