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. Pours a dark brown with aromas of coffee, chocolate and roasted malt. A bit thin on body and aroma, though. Flavor is thin, but nicely mixes the tastes associated with the aromas mentioned above. Not bad, but I expected some sort of epiphany or something, so I’m a little disappointed. Seems to lack some of the ABV and plot complexity of my favorite porters.

As dark as ruby can get.Thin off white lacing head. Espresso, malt and mild fruit on the nose. Nice, mildly roasted and gently smoked flavor. Really smooth with lots of character. Very even. Very drinkable. The Cary Grant(sorry I chose an American) of porters.

Pours dark brown with ruby highlights and a tan head. Sweet roasty aroma with hints of coffee. Roasted malt flavor with slight bitterness, coffee and chocolate. Medium to full body with mild carbonation and a smooth creamy mouthfeel. An excellent porter, one of the best I have had.

VERY nice porter...pretty much lived up to expectations. Served from the bottle in a pint glass...almost black, with ruby hints and a small, cola-like head that disappeared pretty quickly. Very easy-drinking, with nose and taste of chocolate, caramel, and brown sugar. Solid sessioner.

Dark brown color, and chocolate nose. Roasted malt, caramel, coffee, little dark fruit, little nutty. Smooth and sweet with roasted character like dark chocolate with nuts in it.

Bottle at home... Nice Deep red ... big foam head ... Deep roast malt nose ... Nice good roast base ... some chocolate ... quite dry and and bitter ...Decent enough ... but not as nice as the cask... It puzzles me that the bottle scores higher than the cask.

The Porter. Great aroma of chocolate, caramel, coffee, bread, cake... Just huge. Not for hop heads. Light body and low ABV make this a session alternative to most impy stouts.
