Bottle shared with ClubGonzo. Has a clear dark brown colour and a small light beige head. A bit faint aroma of bread, caramel, coffee and some roasted notes. The taste is very similar, but here comes the roasted malt much more forward in the aftertaste. Has a smooth mouthfeel and a light bitterness. A little weak porter, but an okay beer in general.

Cask at the Harp - London. Pours clear gold with a creamy white head. Some bready, doughy malts abound, and there’s also bits of tangerine and hay. Light bodied with fine, creamy carbonation. Sweet, doughy malt finish, some hay and lightly astringent bitterness. Not a game-changer. So so.
