Smooth and satisfying, this example of an historic style of beer derives its rich, chocolatey character from a blend of Brown and Chocolate malts in the brew. Its notable coffee notes and creamy finish make it a wonderful accompaniment to many sweet foods – especially chocolate pudding. 5.4% ABV.

Pours to a dark ruby red / brown with a quickly dissipating head. Medium carbonation. Nicely balanced, not too sweet, not too bitter, not too strong on the roast malts. Malty bitterness balanced with hoppy bitterness. Nice lingering coffee malt bitterness. A tad more sweetness would be welcome but very fine.

A la vista es una cerveza muy bonita. De color casi negro, con tonos marrones. Abundante espuma color crema y muy duradera. En el aroma destacan los torrefactos de la malta, café y chocolate. Los sabores en la misma línea, de entrada algo dulce y final amargo. Notas muy marcadas a café, cereal tostado y algo de chocolate. El cuerpo y la carbonatación son medios, lo que la hace bastante bebible. Conforme gana temperatura se van asomando más matices. Buenísima porter.

Bottle from Waitrose. Pours black with a medium sized thick creamy beige head. Aromas of milk chocolate, roasted malts and a touch of coffee. Taste has more notes of milk chocolate, a touch more coffee and a roasty but also sweet finish. Medium body and fairly smooth mouthfeel. Pretty good but not as nice as i remember it to be.

Aus der Flasche im 2021-03 getrunken. Diese Porter der Standard Range von Fullers startet überraschend mit bitten Röstaromen. Später kommt etwas Malz und Schokolade durch. Aber auch eine ganz leichte Hopfennote/-bitterkeit ist spürbar. Der Körper gibt nicht viel her und macht das Porter recht leicht trinkbar. Nichts besonderes aber ein ordentlicher Durstlöscher.

Bottle from an online shop. Dark brown, clear, with a moderate sized lasting head. Not too complex bitter-roasty nose with some cocoa notes. Flavor is smooth and rounded, chocolate malt and dark Cara goodness, really tasty. Not too bitter like some porters and stouts can be. Mid complexity. Extra point for being a classic of the style 😋

Ein Porter, das sich wirklich deutlich vom Stout aus der gleichen Brauerei unterscheidet. Da ich das Blach Cab Stout als sehr gut erachte, finde ich das etwas schade. Aber es ist wie es ist... Das Bier ist recht süß, so dass es schon ür mich zu viel des guten ist. Die Malznote sind wohl gut ausgewogen, aber es fehlt mir etwas der bitterschokoladige Hintergrund, der meiner Meinung ein solches Bier auszeichnet. Da gibt es bessere Porter.
