Hatherwood Craft Beer Co – The Purple Panther Porter No. 5
This is a ruby coloured ale with deep malt aromas. This is a good malty porter with smokey and coffee notes from dark roasted malts. A very good example of a porter.
This ale is sold under the Lidl – Hatherwood Craft Ales brand brewed by Jennings at Cockermouth, part of the Marston’s brewing group.
Tried purple panther porter n.5 . Wow! Loved it.
It’s surprising but Lidl produce a good range under their ‘Hatherwood’ label a beer for all tastes!
If you’re ever in the Oxford area, try Shotover Brewing – Oxford Black Porter. Just tried it and it is a good porter, in my opinion. See my new review.
