Bottled (from Ales By Mail). Very dee brown colour, small beige head. Aroma is chocolate, roasted malts, some ashes and also some mild zesty and floral notes. Flavour is roasted malts, ashes, mild liquorice, some chocolate, toffee and mild floral notes. Nice mellow bitterness sneaking in towards the finish.

Bottle at a ChrisO tasting, London. Pours rich brown with a frothy tan head. Sugary dark malt aroma, some light toast and caramel. Medium sweet flavor with great toast character, light cocoa, mild earthy bitterness, dirt. Medium bodied with fine, creamy carbonation. Great balance on the finish, moderate mocha, light earth and dry cocoa. Very decent brew.

Bottle at Chriso - 01/10/12. Very dark brown approaching black with a thin tan head that soon clears. Dark roasted malts, nuts, toffee and chocolate on the nose. Taste follows nose, great roast flavour, a little smoke also. Smooth drinking porter with a medium body and a dry finish. Good first effort from this young brewery.

Bottle, many thanks to Theydon_Bois at ChrisO. It pours very dark brown (nr. black), with a thin beige head. The nose is light smoke, roasted malt, charcoal and some meatiness (akin to Bavarian ham). The taste is roasted malt, ashy, charcoal, earth, bitter coffee and some leather, with a very dry finish. Medium body and fine carbonation. Punches above its weight. Good flavour and balance. Surprisingly good.
