If you recreate a 1750s porter containing coriander in the 20th century, you get the much loved, herb-alicious, funky cousin of Old Growler - Umbel Magna. Six medals already in the Camra Champion Beer of Britain awards speak volumes. So trust the experts and treat yourself. Step back in time and experience the wonderful spiciness of this fabulous porter - a taste of history still living it large in the 21st century.

Dark beer with a light aroma with a hint of coriander. The flavour is hopped with a quite weak finish. Overall a nice lightly hopped beer.

Sampled cask conditioned at GBBF.
Dark mahogany colour. Herbal aroma (coriander?). Malty and full bodied, but also sweet. Huge herbal flavour that remains until the finish. Low bitterness.
