Our first imperial porter in cans (!), Midnight in London is the perfect winter weather delight. Built on a base of oats, English Crystal and Chocolate malts, its appearance is dark as night. Organic Earl Grey tea and bergamot were added to complement the medium-bodied brew with a semi-dry finish. One sip and your senses will be swept to tea time in London with flavors of bright citrus and dark chocolate-dipped biscotti. Cheers

Picked up a 4-pack of this and a few others on a recent trip to Pure Project. Their website called it “Our first imperial porter in cans (!), Midnight in London is the perfect winter weather delight.

Poured a pitch black color with two fingers of khaki-tan frothy head. Could see just a few bubbles coming up along the sides of the glass. Below average retention. Good retention. (Sight - 3.50)
Smelled chocolate syrup, toffee, caramel, herbal, tea, apple and toasty malts. About as good from the can. (Smell - 4.00)
Tasted about as good as the nose. In order got chocolate syrup, tea, herbal, toffee, caramel, apple, grape, toasty malts and semi-char wood. (Taste - 4.00)
Medium body. Creamy texture. Average carbonation. Long, toasty finish. (Feel - 4.25)
This was outstanding overall. Glad I picked up a 4-pack. (Overall - 4.00)
