Commercial Description:
Bottled and (in USA) kegged - pasteurised.
Fuller’s London Porter captures the flavours of those original brews perfectly, although you won’t find a cloudy pint these days! Rich, dark and complex, at 5.4% ABV the beer has an outstanding depth of flavour.
It is brewed from a blend of Brown, Crystal and Chocolate malts for a creamy delivery balanced by traditional Fuggles hops. The range of flavours works well with a wide variety of foods, ranging from rich meat dishes, to oysters, and even chocolate puddings.

Bottle, 50cl. Pours a black beer with a brown head. The aroma is roasted with chocolate and notes of coffee. The flavor is bitter chocolate, followed by a roasted and hoppy bitterness. The palate is dry. Overall a very nice porter.

pitch black with mild white head. sweet malt and some roasty scents to the nose. carbonation is moderate for style. some hop bitterness initially then a lot of caramel sweetness that perfectly blends into some roasty flavors, likely from black patent, which fades into some chocolate notes before a long drawn out finish from some residual sugars and yeasty esters. first class all the way, the best brown porter i’ve had with remarkable depth for only 5.4 ABV. amazing

Colore scuro, con uno spesso strato di schiuma marrone. Aroma di luppolo e malto torrefatto, lieve nota di caffè.In bocca è praticamente un cappuccino,sapore di malto e caffè.Non molto amara se non nel finale.Ottima birra scura.

Very nice dark beer, have yet to pour in a glass, but the aroma is mild. Plenty of maltiness to the taste. Can taste the roast. Not as heavy as some of this style, but a mild porter is still a porter.

Very dark ruby red / black beer with a huge deep tan rocky head and really good lacing. Aroma is appealing with its strong bitter coffee beans and a good ammount of chocolate (a little on the powerdery side). Lots of flavour: bitter roasted coffee beans / malt and some chocolate with a touch of hops (really weak). The alcohol and bitterness blend together well. This is really tasty! For me, the mouthfeel was not terrible but just subpar and not to my liking. Slick, too smooth - don’t really like the feel of the hops. Short lived aftertaste. Very good beer none the less.

This beer looks like a giant pint of black coffee sitting in front of me or maybe a glass of coke, very black with a red hugh around the edges and a nice thick tan head about a half inch high. The light scents of chocolate and coffee are very nice, but I would have scored them higher if they weren’t so weak. Unlike the aroma the taste is very strong, dark bitter chocolate, burnt coffee and roasted malts, I think I can also get some chalky banana in the background. This is a very hard beer for me to describe the taste there’s lots going on. The after taste is harshly bitter and long lasting. A very good beer, buts one I could never drink more then one in a evening.
