On tap at Porterhouse, Covent Garden. Enormously choc velvet. I mean it’s like drinking a Belgian choc truffle chocolate. Question is, is it any good? Well there are 2 answers. The choc loving part of me says, "Yes, this is the most intense choc beer I’ve ever had and I love it." The beer purest would say "It’s a bit thin and grainy and it’s a bit crude after half a pint and you wouldn’t want much more."

On tap at the Pianeta Birra, Rimini, Italy.
as Porterhouse Dublin Red Ale. Whiskey coloured, medium sized creamy head, floral nose. The aroma is nice, mild malty and hoppy with notes of coffee and caramel but something is missing. Bitter finish. Very smooth.
