Cask@Market Porter, Borough. Dark ruby red colour, small head. Aroma is roasted malts, dark dry fruits and some malts. Flavour is slightly roasted malts, some spicyness and earthyness. Earthyness is kind of sour and acidic, which makes the beer slightly out of balance.

Cask gravity at Kingston BF 2007. Reddish deep copper, with lasting bubbly off white head. Either quite malty or suffering from slight diacetyl. OK in mouth. Flavours are quite muted. Some toffee in a smooth mouthfeel. Some hop on end. OK, but not exciting.
