A full flavoured porter with a sweet malty aroma. Driven by a complex roasty malt and black treacle character whilst being pleasantly bitter with citrus and some spices from the hops.

On caskat Cloisters. Appearance - black but chinks of brown. Nice head. Nose - elusive but some very dry roast and liquorice coming through. Taste - more of the same and some dark chocolate too. Palate - medium bodied with a creamy texture and a fairly fresh finish. Overall - good stout if a bit quiet on the nose.
