Cask (handpump), Market Porter, Southwark. Don’t be fooled by the name of this beer. Clearly the brewers are full swing in autumnal, caramel malt mode as all the beers new to me on offer at the Market Porter, including this one, were in that style. Dark copper/bronze colour with a thin of-white head. Caramel and bready malt dominate the aroma. More soft malt on the palate with a light, fruity hop presence. Full, but rather sweet mouthfeel. I must admit this is not my favourite style of beer as I often feel a bit more hoppy bite would produce a better balanced product. The Chinook hops don’t really make their presence felt very forcefully. Rather too mellow and sweet for my palate, but well enough executed nonetheless.
