| Tasting Notes: |
Dark red in color with a tan head. Roasty and dark fruits for the aroma. Flavor is bitter followed by some smoke. Moderate carbonation with a good mouth-feel and lingering bitterness. |
| Description: |
When first released, our smoky version of a traditional English porter was ahead of its time. Today, it’s a highly regarded staple among craft beer fans and our go-to food complement; pairing effortlessly with all kinds of cuisine, from peanut butter and banana sandwiches to braised pork belly to apple pie. This worldly libation is dark, smooth, and complex, with rich chocolate and coffee flavors suffused with subtle smokiness from the addition of peat-smoked malt. |
