Midnight Sun - Williams brothers
Yes - A Tesco pickup again! This beer had been sitting in Fridge for the previous two weeks beckoning me to drink it! It was tempting me with the allure and promise of a delicious velvety porter. hmmmI opened it up and poured the black magic that is Midnight Sun (5.6% abv), it was a fraction too cold and just tasted like charcoal so I let it warm up. But it still tasted like charcoal. Not a nice roast malt flavour I was expecting - charcoal!
Here is what it is supposed to taste like!
"Midnight Sun is a black porter style beer, created from a blend of malted barley, oats, roasted barley and chocolate malt, balanced with a generous handful of hops and a wee bit of fresh root ginger. We really like it and hope you do too!"
Obviously the Scots messed something up along the line!
November is drawing nearer, that means Fullers London Porter is not very far away!
