Tasting at Papsø
Black color; small head. Mild aroma, roasted malt, with a earthy touch. Good body strength, very good chocolate and roasted malt flavor, limited residual sweetness, light liquorice and spices, correct bitterness, with some more roasted malt in the end. Very good.

Bottle 50 cl. Courtesy of madmitch76. Pours an almost black with an orange hue and a small beige head. Hard roasted malt in the nose and a little tar. Very solid body, loads of dark burned malts, ashes and licorice. Some malt bitter finish. This is a serious Porter indeed. 100410

On gravity at the London Drinker festival 11/03/10. Golden in colour with a slight white head. Aroma of sweet malts and floral hops. Flavour was much the same, with a decent dry finish. A pleasant, low ABV beer.

Cask at The Old Coffee House, Soho, London. A deep amber coloured pour with slight white head. Tastes fruity, malty quite sweet. Rather plain and uninspiring.

Cask handpull at The Edgar Wallace, London. The regular mild with hops added. Very dark brown, lasting dark beige head. Very touch of plasticine and malt on the aroma. OK in mouth, some dry malt on finish. Bit of hop sting. OK.
