Roasted malts create a full-bodied classic with rich chocolate malt and dark berry notes.

Reviewed from notes.
Can to becher glass.
Appearance: dark brown close to black color with a two finger eggshell white foamy head which dissipated nicely to leave some light lace
Aroma: black coffee roast; dark fruits; dark chocolate bitterness; light notes of toasted nuts and a subtle sweet earthiness
Flavor: blends the prior noted aromas to a fine sweet to slightly bitter quality underscored by a lighter note of roastiness; finishes semi-dry with light roasty notes and some dark fruits
Texture: medium bodied; good as a sipper; some smoothness with barely anything distracting; good carb level
Overall: pretty nicely done porter with some dark fruity notes in there.

Canned. Dark brown to black pour. Honestly pretty good, some roasted malts and hints of berries. Not bad at all despite not being mega imperial whatever.

Can from House of Trembling Madness. Pours black with small beige to tanned top. Aroma is roasty with dark fruits, coffee, dust, dried nuts, touch sweet and rich demerara sugar. Taste is surprisingly sweeter than expected, still roasty and bitter but with prunes, toffee, light treacle, touch of dark berry, coffee, caramel, aniseed. Some chocolate but interestingly other flavours dominate despite the use of this malt. Guess that means a good layer of flavour. Nice balance too. Medium bodied, semi-dry, fine carbonation. Good mouthfeel and compliments the style well. Excellent.

Can at BBT 9/2023. Medium body, medium carbonation. Fully malty, with pleasant moderate coffee, slightly deep roasted, med-light cocoa. Moderate grassy, slightly earthy hops character. Very classic feeling English style porter, I fancy this. Tasty, drinkable, pretty good.
