Aroma of roasted malts, coffee, chocolate, hint of smoke. Flavour is moderate sweet with a moderate to medium bitter finish. Quite nice Porter.

Pleasantly bitter and roasted. Thin mouthfeel and strongly carbonated. Great classic porter.

Can. Malty aroma and taste, roastyness, cocoa, smoked sausage notes, medium to high bitter. Medium body, malty roasty bitter finish. Good.

Can bought from Bic Camera! Branded as National Trust. Pours extremely dark brown black with frothy beige gold head. Aroma is smoke spice and bitter coffee. Taste is dark chocolate, strong coffee with a bitter finish. Slight creaminess. Spiciness lingers at the end. Lovely. Possibly a bit thin inthe mouth but this is just a quibble. Has the oiliness you would expect though. Having something this good out of a can from a camera shop is pretty amazing.
