Bottle from the brewer’s own stand at the Good Food Show at Birmingham NEC. Brown-black with a beige head and a light fizz. Roasty malt and chocolate in a rather light body. Pretty average.

Sampled @ GBBF Day 2. Clear golden color, average sized white head. Smell and taste both are quite faint. Perhaps the slightest touch of hops in there, but hardly detectable. I’ve had much better from the UK brewers at this years GBBF.

Cask gravity at Duke of Wellington, Norwich. It pours hazy near black with a bubbly beige head. The aroma is earthy roasted malts, liquorice allsorts, umami and malt loaf. The taste is smooth, toast, liquorice, light ash, mild astringency, dry wood with a drying finish. Medium body and soft carbonation. A fairly ho hum porter. Drinks easy anyhow.
