Smooth, dark and dangerous, this ale is designed to warm the cockles of your heart whilst sitting around the ingle after a long cold winter’s day outdoors. Although dark and and robust the aftertones of liquorice and blackcurrant make this an ale of complex character, not to be missed.

Cask, half pint at Doctors in Edinburgh. Beautiful dark brown content with a low, beige bubbling head. Sweet malty smell with fruits coming through. Fruitlike malts up front in flavour followed by dark chocolate and a touch of anise. Dry hoppy ending. Good autumn beer [24.10.2008].

Cask handpump, Market Porter. Ruby colour, thin beige head. Some dark fruit, bit ashey on finish. Some damson fruit flavour, some choc. It’s ok, lacks some depth and mouthfeel, but the fruit is fine.
