maeib (3960), Wootton, Northampton, Northamptonshire, England Jun 4, 2008 Cask conditioned - gravity dispense - Northamptonshire BF. A black beer with an off-white head. The aroma has chocolate and roasted malts together with a little fruitiness. The taste is fruity and roasty with coffee notes. A nice porter. Daniel_Brown (1919), Birmingham (via Leicester), West Midlands, England Aug 31, 2005 Hand pulled at the Wellington, Birmingham. Initial hops in this menacing, black brew, then a crazy, hardcore, bitter and ashy charcoal finish. Thin in the mouth, and the over-the-top aftertaste is almost unpleasant. BeerLimey (1875), California, USA Oct 19, 2004 Cask - gravity (Huddersfield BF 2004): Dark reddish brown appearance. Roasted malt and cream aroma. Smooth oatmeal like flavor, dry, roasted coffee finish.
