Gluten Free Scottish Porter. Extra Black is the quintessential Scottish Porter.
Milk chocolate and cold press coffee flavours work in harmony with a smooth bitterness to create a rich and perfectly balanced dark beer. On Nitro, the beer is smooth and luxuriously creamy. Less Gluten, Extra Black.

Black beer, off white head. Smells sweet and malty. Flavour has malt, a little cream, a little chocolate. Super tasty especially for the strength.
