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.

330ml can from Cork & Cask. Gluten Free. Black colour, beige foam head leaving lacing and aroma of roast malt, smokey, chocolate & coffee. Taste is roasty, sweetish malty, dark fruity, with rich chocolate, coffee, ash and earthy bitterness. Medium bodied, soft carbonation, drying roasted bitter finish. Nicely drinkable.

Cans from Great Grog and Lupe Pintos. Black body with a tight beige head that holds well. No visible carbonation. Faint lacing. Aroma of chocolate, coffee and charred wood. Flavour of nuts and dark chocolate. Medium body with a smooth texture. Soft fizz. Full flavoured for 4.5% ABV. I’d love to try a 6.5% version of this. As an aside, the rebrand is subtle and looks very professional.
