A 500ml bottle brought back from my trip to South Wales earlier this year. A decent porter with coffee & chocolate, earthy & smokey. Not too sweet but you can pick out the liquorice.

Bottle. Nose is roast, licorice, hint of chocolate. Taste is earthy smokey, light fruit, leading to a bitter medicinal and licorice finish.

Cask at Captain Cooks, Östersund. A middling Porter that did what it intended with reasonable Malt girth and dark black colour.

500ml bottle from Brewer’s Stand at NEC Good Food Show - Deep ruby black body, off-white head. Nose and taste are standard roast and toast, coffee, chocolate and liquorice. Not too bad.

Bottle from the brewer’s own stand at the Good Food Show at Birmingham NEC. Brown-black with a beige head and a light fizz. Roasty malt and chocolate in a rather light body. Pretty average.

Cask @ Calans, Hebden Bridge. Dark clouded brown with a small head. Has some very palatable dark and roasted malts in both aroma and taste.

Cask gravity at Duke of Wellington, Norwich. It pours hazy near black with a bubbly beige head. The aroma is earthy roasted malts, liquorice allsorts, umami and malt loaf. The taste is smooth, toast, liquorice, light ash, mild astringency, dry wood with a drying finish. Medium body and soft carbonation. A fairly ho hum porter. Drinks easy anyhow.
