Fullers London Porter (Bottle/Keg)

Dark brown to black body with a small tan head after an aggressive pour. Great lacing. Smell is mostly of a slightly sweetened chocolate with notes of hops, malt, and herbs. Taste was the same with a low carbonated rich creamy mouthfeel. This was a great find in Cologne! This drink leaves a mild lasting bitterness that is quite pleasant and an enjoyable chocolate aftertaste.

Serving: 330 ml. bottle. Appearance: Cola colored with a creamy, tan head. Good head retention and lacing. Aroma: Chocolate, a bit of coffee, and roasted malt make for a very nice nose. Flavor: Dried fruit, particularly raisin, some burnt notes, roasted malt, and a slight mineral taste. I think it is well rounded with a great flavor. Palate: Medium carbonation with a medium mouthfeel and a medium-long, roasty finish. Overall: A damn fine Porter for sure. Definitely worth a go if you are a fan of the style.

Poured with a thick brown-tinted head that settled out after a few minutes, nice dark brown color. The nose had notes of roasted malts, plum, and maybe chocolate. Definite chocolate flavors, and roasted malts. Medium-full bodied, the flavors linger for some time. I did not expect a porter with so much chocolate flavor, maybe because I am used to American Porters. I like this beer.

tap at fiddlers hearth. Pours dark brown and delivered to me with no head. One of the best sessionable beers I’ve ever had. Really nice roasted malt and chocolate. very smooth. Great all around beer. Would be happy to drink again.

Bottle. Pours deep, dark ruby brown, almost black with a short light tan head. Roasted malt aroma with hints of dark chocolate, coffee beans and vanilla. Flavour is pretty much the same as the aroma but with a sweeter milk chocolate instead of the more bitter dark chocolate. Exceptionally smooth, creamy mouthfeel with a long finish, this is a great porter.

Nice tobacco and dark chocolate aroma. Mocha coffee and raisins. Deep chocolate brown look, with red highlights when put up to the light. Puffy, pimply head. Looks really nice. The flavor is coffee grounds and leather.Sweet plums and dates. Feint (unobtrusive) butterscotch. Great balance of sweet stone fruits and bitter, roasted malts. Feels ashy, but buttery after the swallow. Stands up to any American porter. None of the English over-sweetening I feared. An outstanding beer.

Dark, almost black with reddish tinge and a large white head. Dark fruit and coffee aroma. Rich and complet flavourof coffee, caramel and chocolate malt with a sligh hop character adding smooth complexity.

Pours an inky dark brown, with a one-finger tan head, very fine and lasting lacing. Aromas of espresso, chocolate, and toast, slightly woody. Medium body, smooth and creamy. Espresso and dark chocolate notes continue in the taste, finishing with a hint of pine. Extremely well balanced and drinkable. A perfectly crafted straightforward porter.
