One of our very first beers with a recipe essentially unchanged ever since the first brew.
A classic, robust London style porter – with our own twist. Smooth and full-bodied, bursting with aromas of dark, bitter chocolate, and roasted coffee. Brewed with 100% British ingredients, East Kent Goldings Hops and an array of seven different malts.
While in stock and enjoyed throughout the year, it’s in the colder, wintery months when Railway Porter really hits the spot. Grab a pint, sit back, and enjoy.

On tap @Mad For Beer (Rome) with ippopotamo36. Pours black with a medium beige-cappuccino head. Aroma is roasted malts, coffee and dark chocolate, stunning! Flavour has dark chocolate, coffee and some hers in the end. Round and perfectly balanced, so gently and "English", one of the best porter I’ve ever had. Simply amazinzg, chapeau!

Gravity cask at Tap East Open Brewhouse Beer Festival - London. Pours dark brown with a rich, creamy tan head. Deep dark malt nose, some chocolate, coffee. Light-medium sweet with nice dark malt character, further cocoa, slight tangy fruits, bitter dirt. Light bodied with fine, creamy carbonation. Light drying cocoa finish, more roast and lightly tangy dark fruits. Good stuff.

33cl bottle. Bottled on 03 10 14. Pours black in color, thick espresso head. Roasted malt, tobacco, milk chocolate and instant coffee. Flavor has coffee, chocolate, milk sweetness, hops. Roasty, ashy finish. Wow. Medium bodied, long finish. You can’t get much better porter with this ABV. Great stuff.
