From cask at Post Office Vaults, Birmingham, 29.11.17. Almost ebony. Small and diminishing head. No lacing. Moderate aroma of roasted malt, liquorice and dark chocolate. Similar taste, with very moderate bitterness. Round mouthfeel.

(Cask at St. Urho’s Pub Portteri- ja Stout-päivät 2016) The beer poured clear and nearly black. Its head was small, dense and lightly brown. Aroma had burnt malts and liquorice. Palate was medium bodied with low carbonation. Flavours were burnt malts, ash, sweetness and bitterness. Aftertaste was ashy and bitter. A too burnt and watery brew.

Black beer with a beige head and a smoky, malty aroma. Flavour is quite dry. Earthy malt and a touch of bitter coffee and dark chocolate. Nice and rich.

(Cask at Craft Clerkenwell, London, 11 Apr 2014) Black colour with foamy, beige head. Malty, roasted nose with notes of chocolate, coffee, black rye bread and a touch of smoke. Fruity, malty taste with chocolate, coffee, caramel, black rye bread and a generous coffee bitterness. Medium body, with a touch of sweetness. Tasty and well made porter. Very nice.

Cask (Brigantes, York) - Black in colour. Plain chocolate, roasted malt and a hint of smoke in the aroma. Fairly full-bodied taste with notes of roasted malt, liquorice and plain chocolate detected.
