Roast amd some caramel. Strange situation where it has explosive head but not much carbonation in mouth feel. Bittersweet end. Bottle.

Black with thin soapy head. Aroma is strong with aniseed. It's too carbonated. Flavour has some dark malts and liquorice but is muted due to the high carbonation.

Pours dark brown from the bottle. A frothy, tan head slowly settles. Mild notes of chocolate and caramel in the aroma. A bit dank. Taste is very mildly bitter with notes of roasted grains and a very faint cherry undertone. Body stays fairly light, a bit too light for my preference. Finishes with watery hints. Overall, okay but too thin.

Bottle shared at the JK tasting in London. Cheers! Pours black-brown with a big, beige foam head. Moderately sweet, with ample toasted bread, some dried fruits. Medium bodied with average carbonation. Decent balance in the finish. Nice one.

Bottle shared at London tasting, October 2016. Black. Heavy roast and charred grain, some sugar as well. medium palate. Pretty standard porter, which is fine.

Bottle split at Islo tasting, thanks to Wingman, 04/10/16 #gusher alert. Rich black with a decent tan cap. Nose is soapy, chocolate, spice, toffee, dark fruits. Taste comprises fruit cake, cocoa powder, dates, spice, fruit rinds. Medium bodied, lively carbonation, semi drying close with a slightly lactic tang. A touch infected? Not one I’d bother with again.

Craft Islington Gathering. Thanks to Wingman. Gushy fucker! Almost clear brown beer, tidy pale tan head. Palate is thin, semi dry and has modest fine carbonation. Smooth tangy dark malts, mild dark fruits. Touches of dried fruits and dark chocolate. Tangy finish. Just another porter.

Nutty Bottle shared at the CBC Islington for the jk tasting. Many thanks to the Wingman for this one. A black brown, coloured pour with a lasting frothy mid tan head. Aroma is nutty brown malts, woody, mineral, vanilla, choc. Flavour is composed of mineral, choc, mineral. Hint of smoke. Palate is frorhy carbonation, woody. Decent porter.

Bottle sample at a tasting at Max’s place. Thanks Tom L. Black with a quickly-diminishing tan head. Aroma of chocolate, alcohol, a bit of dark fruits. Sweetish and slightly sourish flavor with roast, chocolate, dark fruits, a bit of alcohol. Medium-bodied.
