Cask at Market Porter, London; 4.1% ABV
Dark amber to brown color. The aroma is too simple, but the taste is more interesting, with a very nice roasted malt touch.

An amber beer with a nice brown head. The aroma is sweet though with hints of sourness as well as notes of caramel. The flavor is dry hoppy with notes of roasted malt. A beer with a fine balance.
