Belhaven 80/- Classic Choice
Could really get to like this.
it is rich and toasty and almost ruby red. it has fruity notes and is light on hops which i think gives it a nice smooth flavour.
it is nutty with a hint of toffee and the grain comes through nicely.
at 3.9% Vol it would do me for a session

Have an 80/ here but can't remember who's it is, but extrememly nice stuff. If you have a Weatherspoons near you try and get in and try that Beartown Brewries Polar Eclipse, a cracking oint of stout when served well.

 Seems to be the case with Porters and Stouts. Had O'Hanolans Port Stout at the York beer festival a few years back and was the best drink ever, never tasted anywhere near as good since
