Cask. Deep rubyish amber colour, not much head. Aroma is wood, some roasted malts and quite fruity and nectary notes. Flavour is wooden, fruity, grassy and some caramel.

Dark ruby color, no head. Earthy, dark fruity nose, some woody hops. Sticky bitterish and sweetish flavor. Long dry, bitterish aftertaste then some caramel. Where is the porter? Or is this old time English porter?

Cask. Weak fruity aroma. Black colour with a red hue. Frothy light brown head. Green apple flavour, a bit sour. This is a mild ale, not a porter.

[Cask at Charlies Bar, Copenhagen] A hazy deep red beer with a bubbly brown head. The aroma is sweet with notes of cowberries, combined with hints of toffee. The flavor is sweet with a strong berry note combined with some fruit notes and light hop notes, leading to a slightly bitter and dry end with a touch of wood. Very light for a Porter - I can’t find the roasted malt.

Gravity cask Maidstone BF. Very dark ruby. Tan bubbly head, not overly fruity nose bit tarry, but ok in mouth. Nice understated fruit with drying finish. Some coffee, damsons kick in later on. Touch of vanilla not overly sweet
