From cask at the Dove, Ipswich. Black beer with a tan colour head. Aroma of roasted coffee, chocolate with plum notes. Quite dry, fairly high level of roasted bitterness and low level of sweetness. Medium body, but texture a little on the thin side. Finish is dry roasted with a bittersweet edge. A decent porter.

Cask at the 2016 NWAF, The Roundhouse, Derby. Dark brown pour with a beige head. Aromas of cocoa, coffee, dark chocolate and a hint of blackcurrant. Flavours of woodsmoke, chocolate and dark roast coffee. Tasty.
