Smokey cocoa-coffee. With a sweet mocha flavour which is nicely offset by a roastiness and tangy cherry hint.

550 ml brown bottle. Pured a thinner looking blackish/brown with an unimpressive bubbly light beige head. Aroma is sour milk, coffee, and milk chocolate. Other notes floating around include some moure sour lacto notes, floral notes and slight malty roastiness despite the obvious obscure placement. Body is thin, very thin, way to thin for the style, and watery sort of like lemon water. I can see why this beer should rate so high I just don’t understand why it does.

Definite cane sugar and roasted malt presence in the aroma, but with the richess of a Baltic Porter (Okocim). Dark mocha head and opaque pour. Flavor contained almonds, cane sugar and coffee malts. Palate is bubbly and creamy. A well done porter, but perhaps a bit overrated.

Blind tasted - FIgured I’d like this one more than I did. Poured deep brown with a small head. Surprisingly not much smell--there’s some chocolate, light roast, and lactose. Tastes of coffee, a little roast and some smoke. There’s a bitter finish, and it’s smooth and creamy. Overall just not much going on in the nose or in the mouth. Disappointed.

Bottle @ Moon and Sixpence, a dark brown pour with a large head. Aroma is toasted malt and chocolate. Flavor is a little tangy, roasty, caramel. Yum. Tadcaster is for me.

Bottle. Multiple tastings. I used to get these back in the day before domestic craft beers were readily available. It never disapointed and is a true classic in my book.

Bottle at Chandos, London. Almost black with a beige head. Coffee, chocolate, sweet malts and peppery hops with wonderfully smooth carbonation for a pasteurised beer. Excellent porter.

A black colored beer, with a dark beige thick foamy head. The aroma of roasted malts with chocolate and dark fruits. The taste of coffee with pure chocolate. It’s dry. a little watery, Some cherries with a nice bitterness. The aftertaste is dry with coffee bitterness.
