Keg at the Portcullis tap, Portchester, South Coast Jolly Boys Day Out 20/09/2025.
Murky chocolate brown topped with a beige cap that thins to a swirl.
Nose is chocolate biscuit, charr, roast malts.
Taste comprises biscuit, cocoa powder, touch of coffee, dried fruit rinds.
Medium bodied, fine carbonation, drying close.
Okay stout ... would have liked a little more coffee presence as seen as it was given plenty of mention.

Keg at the Portcullis tap, Portchester, South Coast Jolly Boys Day Out 20/09/2025.
Moderately hazed golden orange topped with a white cap that thins to the swirl and edge.
Nose is bitter orange, grass, tangerine, soft malts.
Taste comprises sharp citric zest, melon, grass, bitter orange.
Medium bodied, fine carbonation, drying close spiked with mellow hop bitterness.
Passable pale ... a little on the tangy side and not getting much in the way of the advertised NZ hops.
