Wittenden		06 Aug 2011	Initially I thought this was from the elusive Moor Brewery,but even if it was from Yorkshire, this was an excellent malty, liquoricy dark porter, and selling well.

Brian		25 Sep 2010	This was the best beer for me. Smoky, choc malt porter with really good body. Great balance. As Pete said, if you knew this was on in a pub you'd make the effort to go out just to drink this.

Alison		11 Jun 2005	As a fan of Old Moor's Almanack, I was thrilled to see he had brought out a porter. This was my first taste of porter and boy was it lovely. Chocolately, strong and dark - just how I like my men.
