Cask at St Andrews Brewhouse, Norwich. Ruby-black with a thick tan head. S mild-flavoured, easy-drinking porter with milk chocolate and a gentle roasted barley note being the main flavours. It's got a smooth mouthfeel but it's a bit watery. It's ok overall if a bit forgettable.

Black color with a fine beige head. Ok lacing. Good intensity in the aroma. Fine body and a pleasant carbonation level. Fine balance between sweetness and bitterness. Dry ending. Coffee, roast and some licorice in the flavor. Nice one.
