Much like a certain popular candy featuring peanut butter and chocolate, Espresso Porter was a happy accident! The year was 2007. Palmetto had been producing an awesome Porter, and the folks at the coffee roasters next door were roasting some of the area’s finest coffee. One day, some of that Porter was inadvertently mixed with a little extra dark roast coffee, and the result was what we now know as Espresso Porter. Medium-bodied, not too heavy, and featuring the perfect blend of bold and sweet coffee notes, Espresso Porter remains the breakfast beer of champions across the Lowcountry!

Palmetto makes a tasty coffee porter, a beer I find quite underrated in its home town. Espresso Porter strikes a solid balance between English porter and coffee, neither sweet and fruity nor acidic and burnt-tasting. A little more body would bolster the beer, but other than that, there’s not much to complain about. Plus, this beer makes a perfect way to start someone’s transition from coffee-drinker to dark beer-drinker.

A dark reddish brown porter with a thick moka head. In aroma, loads of coffee grinds over caramel malts. In mouth, a smooth coffeee porter with nice herbal hops, coffee grinds, quite nice. On tap at Brewvival, Feb. 26 2011.
