Cask at Pretty Bricks, Walsall. Pours a very dark reddish-brown with minimal off-white head and good lacing. There’s a pelasant aroma of roasted malts and liquorice. The liquorice comes on strongly in the mouth, along with mint humbug. After a while some smokiness comes through, along with traces of dark fruits and chocolate. Finish has liquorice and malts. This is a top notch porter – very swiggable as well.

Third by cask at GBBF Winter, Jewellers' Bar. Shared with Finn. Black in the glass. Remaining off-white head, dotted spots on the glass. Inviting smell of roasted, black chocolate. Chocolate malts throughout followed by roasted bitterness to the ending. Decent porter. (Birmingham 05.02.2020).
