Commercial Description:
Cask; Regular. Also available brewery conditioned and cold filtered in 500ml bottles.
This fine beer is a blend of a mature old ale with a younger light beer - just as a true Porter should be. The marriage produces an extremely characterful brew which is dark in colour and complex in taste.

thick and dark pour w/ a soap bublly head.. came in a cool looking bottle, smelled of carmel, coffee, and something earthy (grass maybe?)... the palate was mildly creamy a touch bitter, and had some good carbonation, the flavor was a little lacking for a porter but had the normal coffee w/ some maltiness and a bitter aftertaste. Overall nothing outstanding about this porter, but not a bad beer.

Dark brown beer with some lacing. Initial taste is slightly coffee, trails off with the same bittersweet chocolate taste of their cream stout. Actually tastes a lot like the cream stout and english ale mixed. I enjoyed this beer, although it was a bit watery. Still a solid porter offering.

Cola Brown pour with a bit of a soapy collecting head. the aroma is malty with a light roast on top of some wet grains. The palate is stronger than the smell with a nice full bitterness and cola flavour. The best of the St. Peters!

Nice porter with loads of notes of coffee. I like really. Almost no head and light and mild in its flavor. Biscuits, bread and not too wild.

Bottle at Jerusalem Tavern in Farringdon (London), a dark ruby colour with an off-white bubbly head. A light smokey aroma, would have loved it to be stronger. A light to medium mouthfeel, good roasted flavours with a hoppy tang. Quite tasty.

Aroma is roasted, moderately malty, and lightly hoppy. Head is dense and creamy, mostly lasting and produces good lacing. The flavour is well balanced: medium roast with some sweetness. It actually tastes like a blend of two beers. The finish smooth, soft carbonation and medium to full bodied.

[bottle like in the picture] Dark, brownish red with little dots of fizz and a thin ring. Very chocolatey toast with a subtle hint of malt aroma accentuated by british hops. Flavour gentle toasty, roasty malt accentuated by a balanced, chocolatey sweetness and malt bitterness throughout. A bit of that sour/young flavour. Medium body with low carbonation and a lasting choclatey malt bitterness.

1 pint 0.9 fl oz. Aroma is some what of a roasted malt aroma, grainy, a light chocolate note and a small amount of caramel. Pours a almost opaque black with a large tan head. Taste is got a decent roasty flavor, a bit of caramel, and an really off tasting to this brew. A bit of a creamy aftertaste decent. Overall, It’s pretty decent I like it.
