Commercial Description:
In the winter of 1996 we were inspired by an Irish tradition for a morning after 'corpse-reviver' - a splash of Port in your stout! The inspired blending of Rich Ruby Port with O'Hanlon's award-winning stout has created a unique and original masterpiece of craft brewing.

Medium tan creamy head of larger bubbles. Aroma of pine, resiny hops. Deep, bitter taste of roasty wood, pine needles and resin. Nice, complex, and a bit challenging.

First rating.
Bottle at Bishops Arms (Västra Hamngatan) Gothenburg on January 13, 2006. Dark color, brownish head. Mice fruity scent and an unusual flavor. Might have been a bit of Port flavor, but it could have been my mind from reading the bottle, wasn’t a clear such anyway.

Towering head settles to ugly clumps like an Emersons beer. Transparent. Slightly hollow roast aroma like my attempts at the style without the addition of chalk. Hints of nuts and vague port, with a touch of yeast. Subtle curranty flavour before a big, ashy, dry, roasty, quinine-like finish. Fairly hop-bitter too. Nice creamy palate. I’m digging dry stouts at the moment and I dug this one good.

Poured this very slowly into my glass so as to keep the large head to a manageable size. Deep ruby body that almost looks black, light tan head and some rings of lacing. Nose of toasted malt and coffee. Thin body makes this fairly easy to drink, no real guts to it, just a splash of port!, some coffee and liquorice notes and a good dry finish. I like it but I have had a few better straightforward stouts.

Cask handpull at The Three Greyhounds, London Xmas Pub Crawl. Deep rich stout with lots of fruit. Rich, thick and gorgeous. Dry grainy finish. One of the best stouts I’ve had. Some very good sour notes and good dark fruits too. It just has everything you would want and mixes them together so well. Beer of the day for me.

RLB YEHA 05. Slightly harsh strong wine-like aroma with some fruitiness, light sulfur and rich port-like qualities. Flavor is lightly chocolate malt, with some roast but followed by an acidic wine quality. Weak watery body and a slightly harsh finish.
