COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
Mainly available bottlede. Has been seen on tap.
Historically the term used to describe a porter blended from a variety of ales, entire butt uses 14 different malts and 3 hops to recreate this forgotten style of porter. The beer is black/brown with a crisp white head and is distinctly vinuous. It has little hop character as essentially the flavour is derived from the malts. Malts used: pale Maris Otter, lager, wheat, pale crystal, dark crystal, dark chocolate, pale chocolate, black, roasted barley, caramalt, torrified wheat, amber malt, brown malt and malted oats.

Bottle pours a dark brown with a tan head. Scent is roasty. Taste is as well. Nice.

sm89walt (1344) - Norwich, Norfolk, ENGLAND - JAN 9, 2012
500ml bottle. Dark brown body, lasting creamy light tan head. Creamy chocolate, roast & coffee profile. Some grain & a fair dryish hop tone, particularly on the tongue. Light to medium body, quite crisp for the style with a lingering coffee finish. Soft to medium carbonation. A drinkable & lightish porter that lacked a bit too much in body and general oomph to my liking.

500 ml bottle. Pours a dark mahogany hue, almost black with a medium creamy light brown head. A nice sweet nose of caramel, chocolate and oat. The flavor is very nice and robust; sweet caramel, coffee, milky, roasted malts, some dry grains, earthy. Very nice, a solid to excellent porter. On cask this would be awesome. I love these quality English porters.

Quite good mild porter. Too short aftertaste with maybe a hint of butter.

ElDesmadre (383) - Mikołów, POLAND - NOV 25, 2011
Bottle. Dark brown with a creamy head. Roasted aroma full of dark chocolate, some vinous, grappa-like elements, vanilla and mineral elements. Very nice, slightly sweetish roasted taste with a medium bitterness and an aftertaste of dark chocolate plus some vanilla and vague oatmeal. The only flaw I find in this is the weak body. Make this a more full bodied beer and it will be really great.
