An ambitious attempt to recreate a Victorian ‘Entire Butt’; prior to mass production of Porters publicans would offer two, three or up to six ‘Threads’; they would blend different beers they had to suit the customers preference. Invariably dark, a typical blend would contain ‘Stock’ (an aged beer) and ‘Young’ (freshly-brewed) in varying quantities.
This beer is a ‘Five Threads’; a blend of five different long matured and newly brewed beers.
Full flavoured and malty with an underlying hop presence.

Cask-conditioned at the Green Man, Bristol 25/03/2011. Dark brown with a slight, off-white head. Dark fruit, caramel and roasted malts aroma. Sweetish flavour, with more fruit, a touch of coffee and dryish finish. Good.
