BeerCast_Rich (1906) - Edinburgh, SCOTLAND - NOV 10, 2010[Daleside Brewery, Harrogate] Pours deep brown in colour with a fast-reducing tan-coloured head. Quite highly carbonated for a porter. Aromas of smoke, chocolate malt and bitter coffee, but the taste is quite sweet after the caramel malt flavours have come and gone. Still quite drinkable, however – but quite sweet for a porter [04092008]

Quite light in body with hard roasted malt accents, a little chocolate and licorice with a light, underlying sweetness. There’s a vague malt bitterness in the finish.
