500ml bottle (as far as I remember). Dark brown/reddish body with a small beige head. The aroma has caramel, roasted malt and coffee (yummy). Flavor is generous malty, chocolate, roasted and dry bitter. Nice rich flavor and body to be this low abv, could be a bit more balanced. A fine and a bit unusually ale anyway.

Cask handpull at Market Porter, Borough. Copper, lasting beige head. Farty yeast aroma. Good toffeeish malt in mouth. In fact itβs a bit choccy too. The hop is extremely moderate on the finish, but thatβs fine too.

Cask gravity at London Drinker BF 07. Chestnut colour with thin off white head. Bit ugly on the malt. Bit ugly everywhere to be honest. Faint hop on the dry finish.
