The Porter is our flagship beer. The style established Victorian London as the centre of the brewing world. The Porter is also the beer that started us on our journey. Our blend of highly kilned and roasted malts is suited perfectly to our water, producing balanced flavours of rich coffee and dark chocolate. This award-winning Porter represents the true beer style of London. It is one that we are incredibly proud of.

330ml bottle from Ales by Mail. BBE 01.03.17. Pours pitch black with a small head. Aroma of roasty malts, coffee, chocolate, licorice, cocoa and vanilla. Taste is smooth, sweetish and roasty with some coffee, chocolate and cocoa, hints of vanilla and licorice. Finish is smooth, slick and slightly roasty with some licorice, coffee and cocoa. Pretty smooth and balanced porter.

Draft. A black beer with a brown sine under a lazing dark Brown head. The aroma has notes of roasted malt, chocolate, and a bit of alcohol. The flavor is sweet with notes of roasted malt, chocolate, and wood, leading to a dry finsh.

Bottle sample at a tasting at troubles’s place. Thanks troubles. Black with a bit of tan head. Aroma of roast, coffee, dark chcoolate, nuts. Rather dry flavor, slightly sweetish, roasty, with coffee, dark chocolate, caramel, nuts, and a bitterish finish. Medium-bodied. Good.

Draft @ Barborteur Beerdays #1, 14.5.2016. brune foncée, col fin beige doré au verre. Arôme est léger mais plein de belles notes de malts, retrouve un léger grillé et caramel. Palais est plaisant et restant dans un style tout à fait classique de stout anglais, léger chocolaté et grillé apportant une certaine sécheresse et longueur de bouche. Je note aussi une fine note de fumé et un fini finement aigrelet de baies rouges. Classique revisitant les grands styles anglais, serait bien de voir cette version au cask poussé à l’azote.
