We have crafted a London classic: brewed with a traditional recipe and re-engineered London Water. This is an easy drinking beer with a rich, dark character matched with a toasty aroma and a hint of sweet earthy notes. A time honoured, full bodied London Porter.

Cask gravity at the St Albans Beer festival 2018. A clear nut brown coloured pour with a halo of white head. Aroma is nutty earthy malts. Brown sugars, brown bread, hazelnut. Flavour is composed of semi sweet nutty malts, hazelnut, earthy chocolate. Palate is semi sweet, lowish carbonation. Not bad.

Cask at the Bootlegger, 23/07/17. Black with a decent light tan head. Nose is roast malts, biscuit, charr, chocolate, dark fruit rinds. Taste comprises light black peppery spice, chocolate biscuit, toffee, fruit rinds, brown bread, mellow roast. Medium bodied, soft carbonation, drying close. Decent enough porter but I think this cask has seen better days !
