Railway Porter
Smooth and full-bodied, with aromas of dark, bitter chocolate and roasted coffee. A robust London-style porter built on seven malts and East Kent Goldings. It is one of the brewery's first beers, and the recipe has stayed essentially unchanged since the first brew. It is enjoyed throughout the year, though the brewery says the colder months suit it best.
