Saurday 3rd March 2018, after judging the 'Game of Scones' (tasting and marking 13 different home baked offerings) I needed something to force down the crumbs. Jim Preston (the owner and brewer of Rowton) was a co-judge and he recommended his new version of his Portly Stout. Hand-pulled pint in The Pheasant, Wellington Shropshire (Rowton brewery's only pub). Black body, tanned topping. Rich Port aroma and taste, full bodied and smooth, in fact a lovely beer in every aspect.
