I'm not a Porter guy. Too much chocolate and coffee tastes in that genre of beers (I don't like chocolate or coffee). I love Guinness but that is about it among Porters or Stouts.

I liked it, it really did have a chocolate & coffee taste though.

Fullers makes some quality brew though generally speaking all British beer is lighter in alcohol than normal. Case in point that Porter is only 5.9% alcohol whereas most Porters tend to be in the 6.5-7% range.
Fullers is a HUGE brewery though and they make a ton of different varieties. In England you can get them on tap or cask. I prefer the cask for most of them particularly Fullers London Pride (a really great light ale).

When I grow up, I want to know as much about beer as Pokes.

Beer is awesome. I love beer. I love the history and the processes.
