Cask and bottled and bottle conditioned. A classic porter, dark and bitter sweet with hints of nuts and liquorice brewed with flakes of barley and roasted malts. A long creamy and mellow finish.

[2] Review by jonmoore from United Kingdom who has tried this beer once. (1/12/2006 4:55:45 PM)
"Bottle conditioned. Dark, near opaque red brown with a slim and creamy off-white head. Aroma has roasted malts, chocolate, coffee and dark fruit notes. Very smooth and full-bodied, with similar elements in the taste to the forementioned, plus liquorice. Great balance. Excellent porter."
