Mad Squirrel Brewery London Docks
London Docks is an intensified English Porter that elevates the traditional profile into a more robust experience. Rich roasted malt takes center stage, delivering deep layers of dark chocolate and freshly roasted coffee, accented by a distinctive wispy smoke character. The inclusion of Goldings hops provides a subtle, earthy spice that cuts through the malt’s sweetness, ensuring a balanced finish. At 6% ABV, this "double" version offers a sophisticated depth while maintaining the quintessential British character. Its smooth, velvety texture makes it an indulgent choice for slow sipping, blending traditional London heritage with modern craft intensity.
Appearance. Deep dark brown with attractive ruby highlights when held to the light. It supports a moderate, persistent light tan head that leaves delicate lacing on the glass. Clarity is good, though the beer appears nearly opaque in the glass.
Aroma. A prominent aroma of toasted bread and rich dark chocolate is complemented by notes of espresso and a subtle, clean smoke. Moderate earthy and floral hop notes from the Goldings are present, alongside a background of dark fruit esters like dried plums.
Taste. The initial palate is dominated by velvety dark chocolate and biscuity malt, quickly followed by a sophisticated coffee bitterness and a hint of wood smoke. Goldings hops contribute a gentle earthy spice that balances the toffee-like sweetness. The bitterness is firm but smooth, leading into a lingering finish of cocoa and toasted grain. It avoids burnt harshness, maintaining a refined, complex profile.
Mouthfeel. Medium-full body with a notable creamy, velvety texture that coats the palate. Carbonation is moderate, providing enough lift to prevent the beer from feeling heavy. A very light, well-integrated alcohol warmth is present, appropriate for its slightly elevated strength.
