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.

Pours a dark color. Slightly darker than a cola with a red hue. No head at all. Aroma is roasty with some coffee notes. Roasted malt, coffee, some chocolate in the taste. Very nice...a bit thin...definite coffee aftertaste. This is a nice porter.

Bottle @ The Maltings, november 07. Very dark copper/ black color with some shinny ruby hues and a medium, creamy, beige head. Toasted, roasty flavor with some solid caramel notes, a hint of coffee and some very slight vinous notes. Medium mouthfeel, tasty, malty with a nice coffee finnish. Filling but refreshing and moreish. Some molasses notes on the nose with a slight rasiny touch. Excellent coffesih porter.

Drinking one now. Great aroma of chocolate roasted malt, very slight fruity notes. Taste of a rich dark roast chocolate grains with caramel. Head retention is not what I expected but perhaps unwanted oils from my glass or lips are to blame. This is the best porter I ever had so far. All I can say is "WoW"....The wife liked it because it tasted like fresh ground coffee.

Pours dark brown with small tan head. Aroma is roasty, with chocolate, coffee, molasses. Robust flavor, and a nice finish. Excellent example of the style.

Pours a very dark brown with a couple fingers of quickly fading head. Smells very roasty, some chocolate and a hint of coffee grounds. Tastes of sweet roast, a little coffee grounds show as it warms along bakers chocolate and a minor bite in the finish. Light in the mouth with good carbonation. Easy going session beer with a little oomph.

I tried this beer on October 7, 2007 after purchasing from my local LCBO outlet. The beer poured into the glass a beautiful, dark, murky brown colour with a large tan coloured head. The aroma was a combination of malt and yeast with some sweet hints. The mouthfeel was thick and full with some mild carbonation, almost creamy. The taste was malty with some hints of caramel (the possible sweetness in the aroma). This was a very good beer.

Black with tan head. Aroma is a little sweet with some chocolate and coffee. Dry taste, with chocolate and coffee dominating, some sweet caramel also present.
