Dark roasted chocolate malts produce this dry, full-bodied ruby black beer with deep notes of treacle and coffee. So velvety smooth it glides across the tongue like a mythical monster beneath the surface of a loch!

A bit too chilled for me so I'd like to have it again but it's a decent malty porter with a bit of fruit and chocolate but the chill really takes the edge off the flavour.

Cask at the Cardinals Hat, Lincoln. Deep ruby to black colour with a tight lasting tan head. mid roasted malty aroma, with light fruit. Taste light bittersweet. Thought it might have a slightly fuller body.

Black colour with some reddish hints if seen through light. Good and dense light mocha coloured head. Shows good retention and nice lacing. Aroma has roasted malts, coffee and red fruits. Ok but not that intense. Taste follows the aroma. Bitter and sweet notes are balanced in terms of intensity but not very well integrated. Medium bodied with light carbonation, slightly silky texture. Ok, but modest.
