A classic deep Porter featuring 7 different malts to provide a welcome diversity of dark roast character.
A subtle cocoa aroma gives way to a variety of roast profiles and fruity notes. The rich malts merge with the hops to leave a well balanced, bitter yet silky finish.

Cask @ Shepherds Rest, Sowerby Bridge. Dark ruby red with a thick creamy off-white head. Has a milky roasted malt aroma and taste with hints of chocolate, all of which is crisp in the palate.
