Copper color. Light toffee nose.Nice rich body that shows toffee, cinnamon, milk chocolate and caramel. Rich and rounded. A bit of surprise spiciness that hits the back of the throat. Dry finish with lingering bitterness. I liked this.

Cask@Market Porter
This is 4.5%. Clear copper color, small beige head. Light nose, just some sweetish hoppyness. Light palate. Light woody hoppyness leading to dry finish. Boring ESB, maybe that 5.2% was better.
