RCH Old Slug Porter

A dark, chocolatey brown-red beer with a weak white head. A light toasty nose with hints of malt and hops. Sweet caramel and a slightly toffee finish. The taste is dry, bitter with the toasted malt element again and caramel, toffee sweetness. The finish is dry and bitter sweet. (Draught - @ the Norwich Beer Festival 2004).

Pours jet black with a light tan head, very pleasing to look at. Nice mild body with a very satisfying flavor. A distinct nuttiness and a crisp dry finish complement tastes of chocolate, coffee, and dark fruits. Overall, a fantastic porter.

Bottle. Pours a cloudy dark reddish-brown with a large lasting foamy light-brown head. Aroma of roasted malt, fruit, chocolate, nuts and a touch of coffee. Flavour of roasted malt, mild chocolate, some wood and a light bitter dry finish. Body’s a little thin. Pretty good, I enjoyed it.

Cask at Banker’s, JDW, Bedford. Very dark brown with a lasting beige head. Malty aroma with some fruits. The taste also has some background fruit, but the dominant features are coffee and dark chocolate with a good bitter finish. Delicious, satisfying porter.

Pours a dark orangish brown color. Aromas of bread, chocolate, and a hint of coffee. Flavor is kind of weak for a porter. Touch of caramel and chocolate in the flavor.

brown colored pour, lively too. tan head, rich malty flavor, not much hop, solid, easy drinking. something that my boss picked up for me in england. a easy drinking, almost slamming porter. id like to get this on cask.

Really nice one, smoked and like toasted grains. I liked it very much, specially the faom, the colour was like dark but red at the same time, really interesting.

Cask Stillage at the Town Hall, Stockport 29/05/2003 Black slightly rich on the palate and fruity flavour. Hoppy and bitter. Slightly dry chocolaty finish.
