| 3.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Nov 23, 2009 Cask at Volo’s ’Pre-Cask Days’ event. Pours a dark deep ruby with no head. Aroma’s slightly roasty along with a bit of smoke, some coffee and dark fruit -- quite nice actually. Flavour’s not quite as nice, it’s a bit watery and only very lightly roasty along with light hops -- it’s still good though. Light to average bodied. A pretty good Porter.
