During the 1800s, this full bodied ale accounted for 80% of the beer sold in England and was the beer of the working class. American craft brewers have brought back this style from the brink of extinction. Our most decorated beer and now the most decorated brown porter in the history of the Great American Beer Festival!

Bottle: Poured a deep brown color ale with a large foamy head with good retention and some lacing. Aroma consists of caramel malt with some notes of roasted malt. Taste is also a mix between some caramel malt with distinctive roasted malt notes with a dry finish. Body is about average with good carbonation and no apparent alcohol. Very different then most porter with less dry roasted malt notes then I am used to but very interesting nonetheless.
