Commercial Description:
Avaailable on Keg and in 750ml bottles.
George Washington was a big fan of imported English Porter. By 1769 he'd lost his taste for British beers. After all, it was keeping the Redcoats fighting. Our Porter is based on a recipe from 1750. We bring you the original aromas and flavours of the beer that made London the world's brewing capital, flavours we know Washington would have loved. Time, care and attention have enabled us to produce a blend of beers bringing you the flavour of the 1750's. Share this beer with friends and enjoy with barbeques, fish or shellfish. The ruby colour & bottle conditioning are proof of its heritage and authenticity.

a nice example of a simple english porter .. nice roast level .. medium in the mouth .. . a bit tart, nice aftertaste .. . low foam .. a good brew that needs a less fancy bottle ..

Big bottle shared by a roaring fire. Pours black with tan, fading head. Nose of coffee with faint woodsmoke, a touch of sweet cola. Lightly sweet flavor with mild, roasty bitterness. Easy-drinking and lacking some heft in the middle. Dry finish and roasty aftertaste.

Pours with a big, thick head. A beautiful dark brown color, with complex tastes of coffee, chocolate, malt, etc. Reminds me a lot of Ruby Stout or even Guiness. A bit thin in the palate and perhaps a bit over-carbonated? Still, a good example of this style of beer and I’d recommend it.

Colossale porter smezzata con Alessio, uno sfrenato capolavoro; peccato che in quel momento cominciasse a prendermi un po’ di male allo stomaco. Però questo non significa che non me la sia goduta

Bottle from Beers of Europe. Dark brown body with nice, white head. Nice roasty nose of chocolate and malts. Taste of coffee, chocolate, roasty malts. A bit sour and milky too. A really nice porter by an excellent brewery.

Bottle conditioned, 750ml cork & cage from Harbury Beer Fest 3.5 yrs ago. Dark brown to black with ruby hints, cream head. Silky smooth porter with cooked Bramley apple on the nose. Follws then into a coffee sweet body with a little treacle and fruit layering. A pudding, in a nice way, of a beer, very much enjoyed.
