Our homage to London’s greatest export. This Porter is dark brown, almost black, in colour and is reminiscent of Porters of old. Big coffee notes leap from the glass with a slight charred oak aroma in the background. The palate is greeted by sweet dark berries followed by espresso and dark chocolate.

On tap @Mad for Beer (Rome). Pours brown with a big and persistent off-white/beige head. Aroma of roasted malts, cappuccino, chocolate, light coffee, good. Flavour is perfectly balanced between sweetness and bitterness. Medoum to light body, light carbonation. Dry and drinkable, amazing!

Bottle. Thornbridge brewery. Opened with not a noise. Murky, dark brown. No head. I was fearing the worst. However, there’s a nice, nutty, chocolate, fruity, liquorice nose. A hint of damp cardboard, but not really detrimental. Taste is mostly fruity, woody dry. Light bitterness, too. Very soft carbonation. Decent body, though. Finishes with a touch of grassy bitterness.

Half, poured from cask at Fox & Anchor in Smithfield. Good looking with its rosewood coloured body and a fair, fawn-coloured head. Fine aromas of chocolate and caramel. Mixed flavours including dried fruits like figs on a backbone of chocolate malts. Not overly sweet on the swallow. Pleasant porter, easy to drink (London 26.09.2014).

Bottle from Ales By Mail [160814]
Very dark ruby, thin tan head that dissipates to thin rim
Aroma of dark malts, very soft citrus, soft dark chocolate, slight perfumy floral note
Taste as aroma, merging into a black IPA, soft citrus, dark malts, some dark chocolate, moreish
Palate - soft carb, medium body, bit oily, soft sweet palate. Finish as main flavour, soft sweet malts, nice floral notes in the dark malts
Overall - Very much a soft black IPA / porter hybird. I like it.
