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 from Bath Waitrose (first time I’ve ever seen it for sale in the UK). Mahogany with ruby glints appearing pitch under an uneven yellow-tan head that follows the beer to the bottom of the glass. Enticing aroma mashing up high cocoa, old leaves, prunes, smouldering wood and Bovril. Rich malt loaf character under dusty carbon; soft lactic, iron and prune touches. Sweetish initially with Double Choc slickness before the burnt toast, bonfire and punchy bittering hop kicks in. Satisfying.

(16oz nitro can) pours very dark opaque brown with creamy head. Nose cream, sweet chocolate and coffee, and light brown sugar. Taste roasted cane sugar, coffee with cream. Lingers with toastiness, and more coffee with cream. Tasting some nuts in this as well this is a world class porter.

This is a nice creamy porter that has a well balance of dark roasted maltiness and hop finish. The head is perfect on a good pour similar to a Guniess. It has good chocolate-toffee aroma. and flavor.

I’ve been looking for this for a while, and I have to admit to being underwhelmed slightly. The nose is a nice chocolate, nutty, roasty experience. the appearance is dark drown/black, which permits dark red light through it when held up to a lamp. The flavor is a tad more complex, chocolate, nuts, vanilla, roasted coffee, brown sugar. Roasted malts, resiny hops on the finish. Mouthfeel is medium, even a tad on the thin side. Too thin for the style. Decent porter overall, not I good as I had expected.
