2.8 AROMA 2/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20 BOBBDrinker (42) - - APR 17, 2013
A moderately strong dark beer with subtle aroma of roasted malts. Plenty of tan coloured head and a smoky malt flavour with a minor chocolate finish and after taste. A pleasant drink and classic style porter with not much adaptation which is refreshing as some brewers have adapted this style too much, it is nice to go back to basics.
3.6 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 5/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 13/20 Beersiveknown (1625) - NORTHERN IRELAND - APR 9, 2013
Bottle at home from ales by mail very attractive deep ruby garnet with fluffy crema head. Toasted coffee malts and sweet biscuit on the nose. Slight malt astringency at first develops into a long red berry finish with a touch of leather. Medium in body and low carbonation. It makes the right noises and hints at greatness but falls short of the mark in the complexity stakes of the best porters. Nonetheless enjoyed
