A classic porter, dark and full of roasted malt flavor. Chocolate notes are well balanced by a slight bitterness.

Draught, taster. @Iron Hill, Philadelphia (PA). 26/08/2024 [#7.652 Global - #1.504 United States of America - #1 Iron Hill Newark (My Brewery #329 from the States)] I don´t know if this one is brewed in Delaware or PA. But anyways. Pours deep brown with a thin beige head. Aroma: Roasted coffee beans and some Rauch profile. Very roasty and mild creamy palate. Good. Next one, please!
