Thwaites, Bottle Conditioned Tavern Porter
Tonight i am reviewing this truly exceptional ale by Thwaites. What drew me towards this ale was the word bottled conditioned, as there are not many bottle conditioned porters on the market at present.

This for me has to be one of the best porters ever produced especially by a big brewery. The beer is full of flavour with a smooth silkiness to it. Well done Thwaites and i hope you start bottle conditioning more of your ales.
