Poured a dark mahogany with a bubbly tan head and no lace. The aroma is big dry peat and roasted malt. The flavour is strong bitter, liqourice and dark chocolate. A really chewy and satisfying beer. The alcohol is starting to dominate a little but its not at the point where I’m concerned. Great to taste, but due to the high alcohol content, I won’t be having a session on this!

Cask at JDW, Paradise Circus, Birmingham. Poured a very slightly hazy medium amber with a broken white head, lots of lace and no carbonation. The aroma is a little malty, but weak. The flavour is medium bitter, malty, with a hint of toffee and a little fruit on the palate and in the aftertaste. This is what a real ale should taste like and I could honestly drink this all night long!

Bottle from Stirchley Wines, Birmingham. Poured a clear copper with a frothy white head. The aroma is a little malty, but weak. The flavour is medium to strong bitter, a little metallic, some malt and the bitterness hangs around into the aftertaste. A great session ale.

Bottle from Stirchley Wines and Spirits, Birmingham. Poured a dark mahogany colour with a frothy tan head and some broken lace. The aroma is peaty and smoky, leading to a medium bitter flavour with lots of liqourice and dark chocolate. There is a little dry spice on the palate too. A superb porter I have to say!
