[Draft at Porterhouse, London]A light yellow beer with a small head. The aorma is much like water = nothing, but there are weak hints of lemon. The flavor is like hop water, which gives it a quite bitter end from an OK hop. Too simple.

Plenty pints chugged at the Covent Garden Porterhouse back in the 2002-2004 period when I lived in London.
Clear golden, crisp and clean, decent enough easy drinking no thoughts required logger bier.

(Cask) Jet black. Dense nitro-like head. Roasted barely; black, leftover coffee aroma. Soft, mild stout-roasted barley, going over imperceptibly in a bitingly bitter, but nice STOUT. Mouthfeel is thick and rich, alcohol prominent. Gets a bit harsh in the end. Prize-stout. Great - beats the Guinnesses.
