(bottle) Very dark with pale tan head. Aroma is slightly tangy. Light body well carbonated giving superb mouthfeel. Excellent flavour with lovely balance between the sweet rich elements and the tarter ones.Distinct presence of chocolate and coffee at start transforming to a pleasant bitter finish. I am generally not fond of porters as I find the style has too much vinegary sourness, but this is very well done. A great porter; rich and complex but with elegance, clarity and balance.

Bottle thanks to bluebetty. Dark brown with a coat of beige head. Aroma of chocolate, nuts and sour oranges. Taste has milk chocolate, nuts and apples and oranges, with far too much sourness for what it’s supposed to be. But - mildly infected or just past it - it’s still quite nice.
