We aged a fine tasting Porter in Central Otago Pinot Noir barrels for 4 months. The result is a thick mouth feel of roasted coffee and caramel with light and smooth tannins coming through from the oak.

Nitro at the brewpub. Clear dark reddish brown with creamy beige nitro head. Chocolate, light earthy, soft red fruits, light roast, soft sweet grains and light doughy. Medium sweet and under medium bitter, light tart. Medium bodied with soft carbonation. Quite OK.

On nitro tap at Eureka. Pours dark with a thick foamy head. Coffee, liquorice, blackcurrant, grape, musty oak. Flavour starts well, with the sweet tart fruit coming through over the earthy porter. The finish is a little imbalanced as the porter dies off and you’re left with a sickly fruity taste. Lovely and smooth on nitro. Really not bad, just needs a slightly fuller porter underneath the barrel stuff.
