Near black colour. Liquoricey, fudgey, plummy aroma and palate. Flavour is sweet, a little bit rich. Finish is also sweet, with slight hints of chocolate. A true porter - yum.

Hazy dark straw colour. Slightly sweaty aroma with noble hop spiciness. Sweetish palate - sponge bread - with a little crispness in the finish. The sweaty house character and warm maltiness makes this closer to a CIS or Chinese helles than a pilsener.
