Bottle conditioned Chelmsford beer festival, 2006, a major gusher of a bottle. I think this is the Coal Porter blended with a little port. Chocolate. Thin and fizzy, some sugary finish and a touch stale tasting. Smooth body.

Bottle @ Chemsford BF06: Black in colour. Sour, tart fruity notes. Chalky feel. Nice dark malts and raisins. Not bad.

Bottle. Some sweet caramel and then roasted malt characters, some dark fruit characters aswell. There is aonly a really subtle hint that there is any port in this at all. A bit dissapointing.

Bottled - Chelmsford BF. An almost black coloured beer. The aroma was oily and fishy. The taste was dry and thin with some roastiness and again a little fishy character. A little understated and if there is some port it wasn’t noticeable.
