500 ml bottle. Translucent brown color topped by a small creamy beige head. Roasted malt nose hints at dark toffee. Upfront, flavor is more roasted malt with notes of wood and black coffee. Smooth and mildly carbonated. Somewhat dry and bitter, with nutty, dark fruit in finish. Very complex and enjoyable. A delicious British Porter that does more with less.

Cocoa and earthy coffee nose, moderate strength. Maroon brown, clear. barely any head. Charred oak, generally dry but with a mildy sweeter finish. Remarkably light body, and soft carbonation. Drinks like a schwarzbier, very lagery in body and flavor.

Cask half-pint, hand pulled in The Bridge End Inn, Ruabon, Wales on 22nd Sep 2015. Amber pour, wispy head. Malty molasses and fruits in the nose and taste, semi-sweet in nature I quite enjoyed the brew. Can see others complaining about the unbalanced sweetness, but my sweet tooth took to it nicely.

Black beer with a beige head and and very faint malty aroma. Blackberry is nice and subtle as an addition to an otherwise traditional tasting porter. Light but tasty and the backtaste gets richer.

Cask-conditioned at the Commercial Rooms (JDW), Bristol, March 2015. Deep gold in colour, with a decent, off-white, head. Stone fruits, some sweetish, bready, malts, leafy hops and a decent, bitter, finish. Good.

Cask @ Calans, Hebden Bridge. Very dark clear red with a small off-white head. The blackberry is just evident in its nose, but not so much as a flavour. Sweetened dark malts are dominant with some roasted malts there too.
