Fuller's London Porter

London Porter

Fuller Smith & Turner, Griffin Brewery, London, UK - Porter

Wednesday 7 March 2012 – 5.4%Alc./Vol.    90 / 100

Initial Thoughts

A very nice looking can. Deep brown, red and gold label. In the glass this porter is black with deep red glints of light. Nice plush foamy head on top. This is a real looker...

First Sip

Oh yeah! A traditional mouthful of porter flavours! Rich layers of bitterness and sweet malt with a hint of smokiness from the roasted hop character.  

Halfway Through

The big hit of wonderful bitterness gives way to the magnificent malt. Almost a molasses flavour, just enough deep sweetness to go toe-to-toe with the hops. Good stuff from sunny London! 

Bottoms Up

This beer is great if you’re seeking a vibrant, bodied, porter experience. Great colour, great flavour. Good solid quality product. A big, bold porter. Not for everyone to be sure, but not everyone wants to or has the tools to drive a V12 Aston Martin either... I like it. A lot.
