Cask conditoned - gravity dispense - Peterborough BF. A black coloured porter. The aroma is slightly fudgy, and is on the sweet side with a dusting of chocolate. The taste is also a little chocolatey with some whiskey character. Also some grass late on. Quite different and quite intriguing. Good though!

Its happening all over the place and the sixties have started again. Fills the mouth with some flavour. Like a mild out of control.

Gravity, Reading Beer Festival. Black as sin and smooth as temptation. Fresh and tasty - though more in the mild style than porter. Soft coffee aroma. Soft palate with a licorice and boiled bacon and chewed plastic flavours. Not great. And not really a porter.

Standard porter appearance with a mildly hopped aroma and a burn't/fruity flavour. A good pleasant porter, bitter but not overly.
