(Cask at GBBF, London, 8 Aug 2007) Very dark brown, almost black colour with brief pale brown head. Malty, roasted nose with dried fruit and chocolate. Slightly vinous with hints of port. Fruity, slightly roasted taste with notes of dried fruit (raisins, prunes), fruitcake and a long sweetish finish with lots of dried fruit and chocolate. Absolutely delicious and beautiful. My favourite at the festival this year.

Cask-conditioned at the Inn on the Green, Bristol 5/9/07. Bright gold colour with a moderate white head. Aroma of hay and grassy hops. Flavour began with some sweet malt before a hoppy finish. Not bad.

Cask conditioned at Merton Beer Festival Sat 18th Feb. A very dark chocolatey rich old ale, very nice! slight head, a bit sticky, but most drinkable despite the strength.

Bottle. Very roasted. Clean sourish taste. In the borderland to Rauchbier. Not a typical porter. Lumpy sediments.

Gravity cask at Maidstone BF. Black colour beige head. Choc/coffee/liquorice aromas, good in mouth with drying finish and some dark fruit. Good strong dark beer which doesn’t allow the strength to over run it.

Black beer. Head is dark brown with reddish hue, and rather short-lived. Very vinous nose, some solvent (red) grapey, some smoked notes, like firewood. Good! Sharp, sourish taste, woody & piney (resin). [Beer is a few months past its BBd date, but at 7+ ABV...]. Again very vinous, touch of lactic, acetic, and some other acid - malonic? - not sure. Esters à volonté . Unripe fruit (green plums especially) and a bit of tobacco. Sharp, but not adstringent, some dry out effect. Medium to well-bodied. Like it. Very vinous beer.

Opaque black, nice expresso head. Very fruity nose: strawberry fileds aroma and trefoil. Quite light bodied, session beer porter. Balanced but watery. Flavor has flowery English hops and it finishes to slightly roasted taste.
