Cask by handpump, shared with Finn at The National Winter Ales Festival. Bubbly ring to the edge of the glass. Almost jet black in body appearance. Earthy malts and grain to the nose, semi-sweet. Roasted malty taste joined by hints of chocolate and ginger. Bittersweet finish, half-dry. A well balanced and likeable brew (Manchester, 23.01.2013).

Chelmsford Winter Fest. Opaque black beer. Tangy dark malt nose. Light semi dry palate. Nice full on porter. A little toasty malt but smooth and creamy as well. Zero bitterness. Good fruit in there as well. Nice Porter!
