Cask at Ferry Boat, Runcorn. Pours a dark burgundy with a small cream head and good lacing. Malts are in the nose, plus some lactose. In the mouth it has a creamy texture with dark fruits and toasty malts being the main flavours. Some traces of chocolate and toffee as well. Finish is slightly sweet. This is a decent enough porter.

15th Sep 2016: cask pint in The Crown Inn, Oakengates Shropshire. Very dark, almost black: smooth cream coloured head. Malts rule the nose and taste, semi-sweet with both toffee and caramel esters and flavours: Body depth about right for the ABV, bit light if the alcohol level was heavier in nature.

Cask at the Post Office Vaults, Birmingham. Poured a clear dark mahogany witn a thin broken light tan head. The aroma is light roasted malt, light liqourice. The flavour is moderate sweet witn a light, smooth sweet roasted malt, light creamy caramel, sweet treacle, light hop palate. Light bodied with soft carbonation. It sounds great, but it’s a little too light even for a porter and lacks any real defining flavours.

Cask @ Corn Dolly, Bradford. Very dark red with a creamy, slightly off-white head. Crisp and light textured making it an easy drinking dark ale. There’s some pale malt involved but there’s nothing ever stated within the ale. A dark session ale for sure.
