Created in 2007 and named after a cave perched atop the majestic Cheddar Gorge, Totty Pot carries with it a delightful legend: the cave was unearthed using nothing more than a potty as a digging tool. While various Mesolithic artifacts were discovered, the young son of the cave finder struggled to pronounce "potty" and affectionately dubbed it his “totty pot.”
This multi-award-winning, bottle-conditioned Dark Porter captivates the senses with its rich hints of roasted coffee and a velvety malt finish.
Brewed with the utmost care, it features a blend of the finest Pale Ale, Maris Otter, Chocolate, Crystal, Wheat, and Roasted Malts, harmoniously combined with a selection of English Northdown and Goldings hops.
With an ABV of 4.5%, Totty Pot offers a smooth and indulgent drinking experience that pays homage to its intriguing origins. Enjoy this exceptional brew and let it transport you to the enchanting world of Cheddar Gorge!

Cask handpull at Market Porter. Very deep ruby with thin beige head. Roasted malt slight butter aroma. Not sure where it goes in the mouth. Very dry charcoal, burnt malt. Not real choc or coffee. Some fullness in mouth but it’s a burnt malt flavour.

On gravity at the Bristol Beer Festival 14/3/08. Near black with a decent tan head. Sweet aroma of milk chocolate with some dark fruit and roasted notes. Flavour was also very sweet with lots more chocolate and a lactose finish. Good.
