Cask at the Dove, Ipswich. Pours mahogany brown with a small beige head. Aroma is nutty, malty, light chocolate. Medium sweetness, lightly bitterness. Medium body, sticky texture. Finish is sweet, malty. Best I’ve had so far from Shortts.

Cask at the Kings Head - Norwich. Pours deep brown with s frothy light tan head. The aroma holds cocoa, mild roast, dried fruits, leather, earth. Medium sweet flavor with lovely chocolatey character, subtle roast, toasty brown bread, very slight earthy bitterness. Medium bodied with fine carbonation. Sweet finish, with more cocoa, brownies, toasted brown bread, minimal earth, nips of leathery berries. A great porter overall.
