Dark black with ruby red highlights, this Robust Porter is rich and complex. A blend of UK malts, chocolate rye and Belgian candi sugar provide a sweet chocolate, yet rich earthy quality. Malt forward with an aroma full of roasted malts, toffee and dark fruit, this National Homebrew Competition medal-winner is a great dessert beer or to pair with hearty foods. Happy brewing!

22 oz bottle poured. Bottle tagged with the recipe, like Iโ€™m assuming the whole series is. This is the first Iโ€™ve heard of the series. Love the idea. Pours a near black with a ton of tan foam head. Big toasty malt aroma. Nice chocolate malt flavor up front. Dark chocolate finish. I donโ€™t think these guys make a bad beer.
