Bottle at Bruce’s - London. I picked this one up in Rome. Pours clear brown with a tight, creamy beige head. The aroma holds dark malts and suggestions of ginger. Light to medium sweet flavor, further dark malts dry toast, more ginger notes. Light to medium bodied with fine to average carbonation. Moderate sweetness on the finish, some charred malts, dried ginger, burnt toast, earth, burnt dried wood. Decent.

Huge, dark-beige head over brownish tinted black beer; classic lacerings. Rich chocolate & cappuccino nose. Bit of black cardemom, roasted grains, and thyme in the background. Black cardemom again, bark, ink, black chocolate and cold coffee. Impression of sweetness behind all this, and a suspicion of (chili-like) heat. Quite slick, even viscous. Medium bodied at least; sprittzy, despite the creamy head. Good one! More than decent, balanced Porter.
