Honey Laku
BA Imperial Porter
10.5% vol
Taste
Velvety smooth mocha and rich honey characters come through first, with a touch of black pepper and caraway layering in and balancing out the sweet toffee characters from the malt. On the finish is a long lasting freshly cut liquorice sensation followed by a pleasant acidity from the cassis and just a hint of rock salt to marry the flavours together.
Nose
Rich freshly picked blackcurrants mixed with delicate hints of anise and dark chocolate. Red fruits, burnt toffee, and just a hint of smoke follows.

Tar-black with a brief deep brown head.
