Inspired by London’s Industrial Revolution when Smog filled the air and the Porter was the beer of the people. An original home brew recipe using 9 different malts including a good chunk of smoked ‘Rauchmaltz’ from Bamberg, Germany. Big flavour hits of molasses, raisins and caramel are cut with the resinous US hop Chinook. Smokey aromas fly, reminiscent of the smoke stacks of industrial London.

Flaska från Alesbymail. Smak och doft av rostad malt, choklad, kaffe, aska, rök, brunt socker med toner av lakrits. Rund och len, fin rökighet och viss syrlighet, torr med lagom sötma och beska. Välbalanserad, mycket gott!

Flaska från Alesbymail. En stabil porter med en lätt rökig touch som adderar lite chark till de rostade smakerna. Rund, lätt syrlig, torr, måttlig beska. Snygg.

Can, thanks SirLimpsalot. Black with a tan head. Aroma and taste of roasted malt, light smoked ham and smoke. The finish was medium bitter. An ok one although a bit on the thin side.
