Our Robust Porter is brewed with eight malts to make a roasty brew with coffee and chocolate in the nose, balanced by complex caramel malt flavor and a medium full, malty mouthfeel. One of the five beers we had on draft the day we opened!
Malts: Caramel, ESB, Carapils, Pale Chocolate, Black, Munich, Marris Otter
Hops: Cascade

Sample at Tap House Grill. Brown-black color with a medium tan head that diminishes steadily to a film. Patchy lacing. Roast malt, coffee and chocolate in the nose. Light to medium body with flavors of roasted malt, coffee and dark chocolate. The finish is roasty with a nutty and malty aftertaste. Above average overall.

Bottle shared at the Cotteridge Convention - 2016 edition. Cheers and Tom Hanks! Pours clear, deep brown with a creamy, beige head. The nose holds earth, chocolate and burnt pine. Medium sweet flavour with cocoa, light bitter earth, pine, citrus rind. Medium bodied with fine to average carbonation. Moderately sweet to conclude, with good hop expression, more pine, earth. Good stuff overall.

Bottle at the 2016 Cotteridge Convention thanks to Shane. It pours dark brown with a small beige head. The aroma is bitter – sweet, earthy roast, dark fruits, burnt pine, chocolate and tobacco. The taste is crisp, bitter, earthy roast, wood, charred notes, burnt brown bread and a hint of cardboard with a dry, malt-driven finish. Medium body and moderate, foamy carbonation. Didn’t really stand out for me, came across as a run of the mill porter.
