Our take on this centuries-old style employs the humble oat to promote a smooth and creamy mouthfeel while chocolate malts and roasted barley bolster brilliant tones of cocoa and coffee.

Nice black liquid and a bit of foam on top. Good sweet roasted barley on the nose. Flavour is sharp barley with chocolate and coffee notes. I would have preferred less wateriness on the mouthfeel, but otherwise this is some seriously good porter.

Draft - Roasty dark malts, molasses and some burnt notes. Deep mahogany with a rich beige head. Roast malts, slightly burnt, chocolate and a nice long finish.
