Porter dates from the 1720’s and is the predecessor to Stout. It was called the “workman’s beer” as it was strong, but nutritious. Ours is a robust porter with abundant body and a deep garnet, almost ebony color. It is slightly sweet with chocolate & coffee aromas. Hop and roasted grain flavors are present, balanced with imported English hops.

On tap at the Prado 5 Seasons. Pours black, with a small, creamy, tan head. Nose is roasted coffee, syrup, bitter chocolate, and a little licorice. Sweet, with a significant bitterness, and a long, acrid, bitter aftertaste. Medium to heavy body, chalky, and thick. Overall, this is a weak, unpleasant porter. Could be much better.

Sampled from the tap at the brewpub. Pours a clear brown with a tan head that starts and remains at the edges. Aroma has notes of roasted malts with a hint of chocolate, but a bit one note. Flavor has roasted malts up front that mellow to allow a dark bread note to come out but a bit thin.
