Cask at Shakespeare’s, Sheffield. Clear, chestnut brown. Bubbly, lasting, tan head. Dark fruit. Dark, roast malt. Light coffee. Taste is sweet on the lips, then ashy dry. Light, dry palate. Nice finish of sugary espresso, first off, then a fruity, dry, bitter linger.

Cask at the Euston Tap - London. Pours clear, deep brown with a frothy, tan head. The nose holds well-roasted malts, a bit of dark malt tang, subtle coffee. Medium sweet flavor with further roast character, mild lacto tang, cocoa, light ground coffee, some burn toast and dark fruits. Medium bodied with fine, smoothing carbonation. A bit more coffee edge in the finish with moderate burnt earth bitterness, darkened sugars, bread, milk chocolate. Pretty decent.

Solid and well made porter, with a generous coffee character. Very nice.

Cask (Pleased To Meet You, Newcastle) - Dark brown with red tinges. Coffee and roasted malt dominate in the aroma. Moderately roasted taste with cocoa and coffee being fairly noticeable, although I was expecting a bit more coffee.
