Clear rubyish brown colour, good frothy beige head, half-way lasting, patchy lacing. Aroma sweet & roasted malt, cocoa, molasses, light treacle. Taste roasty medium sweet and bitter, cocoa powder, bit caramel, herbal notes. Medium body, oily texture, soft carbonation, malty sweetbitter aftertaste, cocoa lingers on, hint of coffee, herbal notes, not a classic porter imo but very nice anyway.
