It looks like a Porter, tastes like a Porter, but doesn’t feel like a Porter. Roasted dark malts are used to create the rich colour and smoky flavour in this 6.2% beer and even a hint of chocolate. At 30 IBU, the texture is lighter than you might expect allowing you to enjoy more than one of these special dark beers. Carbonation is minimal, as a good British-syle Porter should and this allows all tastes through and prevents that bloated feeling.

The aroma is mellow sharp barley, some vague coffee. Has okay brown body with little foam. Flavour is chewy smoke, soft beef jerky, mellow barley and dark chocolate. Mouthfeel is a little thin but has okay carbonation. There are some nice elements here but there is room for improvement in all areas.

Draught at the brewery. Medium brown, light toasty malts, decent, sweet, light caramel character.
