The Porter is our flagship beer. The style established Victorian London as the centre of the brewing world. The Porter is also the beer that started us on our journey. Our blend of highly kilned and roasted malts is suited perfectly to our water, producing balanced flavours of rich coffee and dark chocolate. This award-winning Porter represents the true beer style of London. It is one that we are incredibly proud of.

On tap - Pours a clear deep dark brown colour with a small beige head. Aroma is roasted malts and coffee grounds. A moderately sweet to heavy sweet taste, smooth roasted malts with chocolate and liquorice flavours combined with a lingering dry bitter finish.

Etter at vi er ferdig med dagens slit under dekk henter skibsrederen frem en 0,33 flaske fra lønningsskapet. Brunsvart med storboblet skum som etter hvert oppfører seg eksemplarisk. Kaffe, sure bær, mørk sjokolade (som i 80%-sjokolader), hint av cigarbox. Tynn munnfølelse for et 6,7%-øl. Tørr og nokså besk avslutning. Lettmatrosen er ikke helt fornøyd, men stiller nok til fornyet innsats i morgen.

Bottle shared with JMD on board Fridtjofen 08.12.19. Very dark brown. Brown head. Complex and well-balanced taste of dark chocolate, cigar box, pin, a little liquorice and grapefruit bitterness. Pleasantly light mouthfeel. Very quaffable.
