Totty Pot from Cheddar Ales Beer Review

Welcome to the Drink in the Sights Totty Pot from Cheddar Ales Beer Review. It's quite rare to find a gluten free porter so I was always going to give Totty Pot a go. Cheddar Ales are one of the main gluten free breweries in the UK so I've had a few of their beers recently as I conduct research for my upcoming best gluten free beers page. They are a Somerset brewery and have been going since 2006 and have been gluten free, or low gluten since 2015, so double check each beer before assuming you're certainly safe. Totty Pot from Cheddar Ales pours a gorgeous jet black with a pretty good light brown head. I don't think I've seen many gluten free beers this dark, and that bodes well for me as a stout and porter lover. The beer contains a distinctly average 4.5% alcohol so it's certainly not a big hitter, but above the session threshold for me.

Totty Pot from Cheddar Ales has a dark fruits and roasted coffee beans aroma, with just a little chocolate coming through at the end. The texture is nice and full bodied, as a good porter should be, and the taste is everything you'd want. There's plenty of roasted coffee notes expertly mixed with chocolate, and just a hint of dark fruits. I really like a good porter and Totty Pot from Cheddar Ales is an excellent one, and certainly one of hte top gluten free beers you can buy. 9 out of 10.
