Brett Porter is inspired by the ancient London Porters, superstar beers of the 1800s preserved in giant wooden barrels in which Brettanomyces yeasts would develop. Our Porter is not barrel-aged, but rather co-fermented with our house Brettanomyces, and brewed with magnificent special English malts.
She is black with a ruby accent. Her foam is dark beige, fine and persistent. The Brettanomyces are well present in the nose and add a winy character with hints of ripe cherries, as an old kirsh, and a bit of leather. A roasted, slightly smoky touch completes the picture. We find these flavours back in the mouth, accompanied by notes of moka, cocoa powder, and prunes. Her body is mellow but light, which makes her surprisingly refreshing and easy to drink!

Donkerbruin bier met schuim. Smaak is bitterzoet en kruidig met iets van chocolade, wat koffie en een lichte typische brett smaak. Al met al heel fijn in balans.

Flaska från Kihoskh. Opak kolsvart vätska med medelhögt krämigt beige skum. Typiska porteratomer av kaffe, rostad malt, mörkt bröd och en lätt brettouch. Brett ger krispighet, kryddighet och karaktär och funkar alldeles utmärkt i en porter. Relativt torr utan att bli svår. Snyggt och mycket gott.
