Dry-Hopped Porter
Flora Obscura, literally dark flower, features massive dry-hopping, with Simcoe, Cascade, Amarillo, Mosaic and Galaxy hops over a robust porter base composed of two-row pale malt, two varieties of caramel malt, raw wheat and chocolate malt. Originally born as a test beer for our Tours & Rec Center, Flora Obscura explores the interplay of hops suggestive of orange, grapefruit and tropical fruit flavors with rich chocolate and espresso notes provided by roasted malts.

Shaker pint draft at The Burg & Barrel in Overland Park, Kansas. The pour is a clear brown with a bit of ruby and a 1/2 inch light tan head. The aroma is bright pine and citrus hop, a bit of roast, and caramel malt. The taste is super fresh hop, bigger citrus orange the pine, and a touch of resin. The soft roast caramel malt is clean and soft. Pleasant mellow bitter finish. The palate is light to medium bodied with active carbonation and the dry, softly mineral, bitter finish. I liked this, really cool Porter, Brown Ale, Black IPA type of mashup.
