Pipeline Porter is smooth and dark with a distinctive roasty aroma and earthy complexity from its diverse blends of premium malted barley. This celebration of malt unites with freshly roasted 100% Kona coffee grown at Cornwell Estate on Hawaii’s Big Island, lending a unique roasted aroma and flavor. A delicate blend of hops rounds out this palate-pleasing brew.

Sample at SBWF 2018. Black with a small tan head. On the sweet side with roasted malt, chocolate, some coffee and hints of dark fruit. The finish was a bit short.

Bottle at Republiken Östersund. A fabulous beer that does the job, lovely coffee flavours but it doesn't become too much. Great colour in the glass.
