Graham Rayner is drinking a Milk Stout by Black Sheep at Untappd at Home
Smells and tastes chocolatey, notes of coffee with maybe a hint of caramel. Roasted malts and bitter hops in the finish. Milky feel after swallowing. Rich, smooth and creamy mouthfeel without being sickly sweet. Very nice.

Graham Rayner is drinking a Tonkoko by Brew York at Untappd at Home
Almost black, tan head. Creamy, low carbonation, coconut and chocolate aromas. All flavours listed on can plus another, i presume tonka bean.Milky feel in the back of the throat after tasting. Coconut and sweetness a little overpowering. Struggled tbh.

Graham Rayner is drinking a Nightmare Porter (2018 onwards) by Hambleton Brewery at Untappd at Home
Classic traditional dark, malty porter. Bitterness. No doubt developed before the trend of adding fruits, coffee, chocolate and the like but no worse for it. Maybe a little thin but not to its detriment.

Almost black in colour, head dissolving quickly. Very sweet, rich, full of chocolate flavour with caramel notes. Easy to drink but needed a break halfway. The marshmallow in the name references the soft carbonation mouthfeel.
