We’ve been brewing our robust American Porter since 1916. A beer with enough backbone to carry us through Prohibition and beyond. Narragansett Brewing received one of only six patents granted by the U.S. government to brew this beer for “medicinal purposes” from 1920 – 1933. These days, whether you call it ‘Gansett Dark like some old time local fishermen, or just plain Porter, you’ll love this hardy and deliciously nuanced brew. It’s not winter in New England unless you’re enjoying a Narragansett Porter.

Cheers to Tony @ OTH for opening this one. Pours dark brown, off-white head. Aroma dark malts, intense roasted goodness, caramel. Flavor, amazingly easy to drink, lots of chocolate malts, roast, hints of hops bitterness, carbonation might have been a tad too high, nice bready/dough finish. This is tasty!
