500ml bottle bought from the Offie, Leicester, and drunk at home. Dark brown, opaque with a thin khaki head. Scent of plum and raisin with notes of dark chocolate and ash. Bitterness to the taste, with some sweetness mid-sip disappearing and into a slight acrid finish with chocolate and more plum notes. Oily body, medium carbonation. Not overly keen but it's drinkable

Cask at Petersgate Tap, Stockport. Served too cold so a re-rate may be required. Pours a very dark reddish-brown with a generous beige head and good lacing. Plums and malts in the nose with just a hint of coffee. Texture is rather watery with low carbonation. In the mouth, dark fruits predominate, with traces of cocoa, malts and fag-ash (!). Rounded off with a fruity finish. A reasonable beer, but too much fruit and not enough porter !
