Gravity dispense at the Prince of Wales, Farnborough BF - 12/10/12. Dark mahogony brown with a creamy tan head. Nose comprises roast malts, toffee and a little smoke. Tastes of milk chocolate, light roast malt, toffee. Medium bodied with moderate carbonation and a smooth finish. Not a watery one as some 4% porters can be, so overall a decent drop.

Bottle from Beers of Europe, King’s Lynn
Hazy golden color, beautiful, with generous head. The aroma unfortunately is metallic, with minestrone vegetables. Dryish mouthfeel, poor malt flavor, again with some metallic feeling and vegetables; correct bitterness.
Flawed.

Pigs Ear. Opaque black beer. Light brown suddy head. Dry semi crisp palate. Sourish tang to this like a good porter but not as heavy. Light sweet fruit and bubblegum sweetness. Light minerally finish. All right.

Amber...clear....frothy white head..some lacing
Aroma - very light aroma - some spicy hops.....pale malt.....very slight citrus tang...light cereal
Taste - biscuity malt...light spicy hedgerow hops.....light toffee...bit of yeast......cereals
Palate - soft carb.....thin to medium body. Finish...light bitter...slight citrus and cereal biscuit...cleans off palate
Overall - Not a lot of flavour for the abv and not an IPA. Just slightly above average.
