A traditional dry Irish Porter, brewed with Irish grain and New World hops. Wonderfully creamy with coffee and chocolate on the finish.

Bottle sample at a tasting at Dancing Camel. Thanks Tom L. Dark brown to black with a tan head. Nice cocoa aroma with roast, and a light vegetal hint. Rather dry flavor, roasty, with cocoa, some coffee, and a bitterish finish with a "green" hint. Medium-bodied. Nice.

Bottle from Supervalu, Longford [171214]
Black, beige frothy head, some lacing
Aroma of soft dry roast, touch of dark malts, slight yeast, soft burnt note
Taste of soft dry roast, dab of dark chocolate, slight burnt note, quite simple
Palate - Medium carb, medium light body, little thin, quite smooth, soft sweet. Finish as main flavour, soft dark malts, some more roast and soft coffee in the afters
Overall - Not bad, best of the Kenmare beers
