Thin and fizzy ruby brown with a creamy beige head that fades to a thin root beer-like film. Light tea brack/black malt nose.
Molasses, Irish brown bread, some soil and milk chocolate, a bit of char in the middle, bark and kola hops.
Earthy, spicy finish and tight minty linger.
Thin, lively, some chew.
Some interesting flavors going on but wrapped in a soda pop body. Way too light for the strength. I can see more than a few traces of a Northern brown ale, which makes sense from Yorkshire, but falls short as a porter.
Doesn't even pair well with the eponymous cheese!

Pours with a pitch black body, a small bubbley tan head that fades to nothing very quickly, and very mild carbonation. The aroma is surprisingly fruity and floral with sweet orange and hints of peach. Under this are impressions of heavy malts but they are well hidden. The flavours are very earthy with what tastes like green vegetables along with a hint of smokiness. Not what I was expecting in the taste, and I'm slightly disappointed.
