A dark reddish-black porter that draws you in with a tempting aroma combining roast malt with classic English hops. Some initial sweetness gives way to a mouthfull of berry fruit and roast malt flavours and a well-rounded bitter finish.

Cask, 4.4% at GBBF08. Almost black colour. Stable frothy light brown head. Good roasted aroma. The flavour is also nicely roasted. Thin mouthfeel, but very good flavour.

On gravity at the Bristol Beer Festival 14/3/08. Dark brown with reddish undertones and a slight tan head. Aroma of caramel, red fruit and a touch of roasted malt. Flavour was slightly sweet with some chocolate, more fruit and a short bitter finish. Good.
