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

Draft. Nice brown pour, roasted coffee, some sweet caramel. Leans more to the dry roasty side with the lighter sweetness just adding a nice balance.

Draft at the brewery. Opaque brown with strong coffee aroma. Chocolate, grain and caramel dominate the taste of this full-bodied beer. Pleasantly lingering malt finish.

Medium brown. Nutty, chocolatey nose. Same palate, good complexity, really nice dark malt complexity. Lingering hop character, and quite bitter. Basically a black IPA.

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.
