Well-rounded porter with fruity, sweet notes over a backdrop of hoppy flavour. Deep red in colour but not in taste, the plum lightens the depth on the palate.

Cask@George (JDW), Croydon (02/11/2022) - Somehow always missed this, plum notes are there, rich and pretty prominent, medium sweet, sweet malty and dark fruity, fruit skin, nice smooth body and mouthfeel, dark plum laced fruity close. Nice one.

50 cl bottle @ home, BBE 01/2023 Aroma has plums, belgian vibes, chocolate and ripe fruits. Flavour has plums, ripe fruits, belgian yeast. Finishes with mellow hop bite and fruit juice. Sweet-ish, the plums fit in surprisingly well. A bit watery this is and could work better with less hops.

Cask at Ship on Gracechurch Street, London, 2nd December 2021. Pours a clear very dark brown. Aroma is sweet malts, liquorice, cocoa. Taste is interesting, sweet, plum comes through, a little cocoa, quite complex. Good and different

Cask at Lych Gate, Wolverhampton. Have drunk this many a time over several years, but somehow not got around to rating it before. Pours a rich ruby red with a small cream head. Plum, plums and yet more plums in the aroma. Has a creamy texture in the mouth, with flavour being predominantly plums, but also dark fruits and cherries. Roast malts at the start but then sugary sweetness comes through. Finish is dry and fluctuates between sweet and bitter. I used to really like this but not so keen on it now (too much fruit).
