Pours a clear reddish amber colour with a small cream coloured off white head. A toasted malty aroma, some caramel and fruit. Similar taste, malty, caramel and fruit flavours and moderate short bitter finish. Smooth, medium bodied and pleasant.

330ml bottle from Stori, Bala. Pours a very dark brown, small pale tan head. Aroma is fairly promising with nice dark chocolate mouse notes. Taste falls short in comparison, very thin on the palate with fleeting chocolate and vanilla notes that disperse quite quickly. Not a great chocolate porter.

330ml bottle from Stori, Bala. Pours clear gold, thin white head. Toffee malt aroma. Taste presents a distinctive English hop profile with moderately sweet toffee malts, earthy fruity marmalade hops with a light bitterness. For what it is, it’s ok, but wouldn’t go out of my way for this again.
