Robust Porter

Pours silky black with a creamy tan head. The nose is sweet with strong chocolate and caramel malt presence. No absence of hops gives Founders’ robust porter the full flavor you deserve and expect. Cozy like velvet. It’s a lover, not a fighter.

Draught. Poured dark with small tan head. More of a sweet stout almost. Chocolate and malts etc. Pretty good.

Bottle purchased in Italy last month. Brewed in... Wtf 2021? Okay... Super dark, tan head, opulent nose of chocolate, brown sugar, black malt. Velvety and tasty, aftertaste lingers with smooth roasted malt dryness. Might be a bit aged in the store methinks, but handles it well.

pour opaque BLACK. Wow, does this look thick, looks like an impy stout! Big aroma of coffee, milk chocolate, cocoa, lots of roasted malts. Mouthfeel is chewy, and quite a bit thicker than i expected. Lots of roasted malt in the flavored tailed by lots of coffee, and cocoa. Mild bitterness in the finish, with a touch of hops. Wow, in a blind tasting i think you would be hard pressed to guess this was a porter. But damn it’s delicious.

Bottle from Speciaalbierpakket. Aroma is roasted malt with chocolate, caramel, coffee, and plenty of mocha. Flavour is medium sweet with a nicely roasty bitterness in the finish. Body is above medium. Lovely rich Porter with lots of roast, chocolate and coffee.

Servida en pinta inglesa, color negro opaco, espuma beige abundante y duradera. En nariz notas de chocolate, maltas torrefactas, bizcocho de chocolate, pan negro, café en grano...tuve e la ocurrencia de acercarme a la nariz la botella vacía y oler en su interior después de haber servido su contenido y ya lo que de ahí percibí me hizo salivar. En boca es profunda y rica en matices, pero con un cuerpo que ,siendo completo, tiene el punto exacto de ligereza para hacerla tremendamente llevadera de beber. Por el paladar se pasean notas de café, cacao, maltas quemadas, pan tostado, pan de centeno, achicoria, tabaco negro...El amargor, forzosamente torrefacto, es medio-alto, dulzor medio, exquisitamente redonda, alcohol perfectamente integrado, postgusto largo y placentero...En definitiva una Porter excelente
