St. Bridget, a legendary Irish saint, created a sensation by turning her bathwater into beer. What better way to celebrate her worthy miracle than with our zymurgistic tribute to her feat, St. Bridget’s Porter. St. Bridget’s is a smooth, elegant, and chocolaty brown porter. Brimming with coffee and chocolate characteristics from dark barley malts, St. Bridget’s is carefully hopped to provide the perfect complement to its malty robustness.

Bottle at Orsted Olbarog. Deep brown, thin beige head. Choc aroma. Plainish choc porter. It’s ok, not that exciting. Just a normal choccy porter.

Pours with a light brown, foamy head covering a black body. Some wavey lacing. Aroma of flower and mocha. Taste is a nice malty porter with some coffe and chocolate undertones. Somewhat creamy mouthfeel. Not a bad one.

Sample at Bodega. This beer is a nearly opaque dark reddish-brown color with a medium thin beige head that dissipates slowly. Spotty lacing. Caramel and chocolate in the nose along with a touch of coffee. Medium, smooth (almost thin) body with flavors of chocolate and weak coffee, plus mild hops. The finish is coffee and burnt malt. Slightly above average overall.

Bottle. Nice creamy aroma with some sweet liquorice notes. Very dark brown colour, small unstable tan head. The flavour is creamy, hint of liquorice. Ending with slight smoke notes and a little cardboard. Also has a little alcohol towards end, but not really strong.

Very dark brown with a red hue. Frothy, big beige head. The aroma is roast, I sense more caramel than the coffee and chocolate the brewery describes though. Perhaps a little wood, a little licorice. Also some American hops poking through the darkness. Flavour is dry, quite hoppy and the roastiness is indeed more like ash than the classic charcoal. Nice and lasting roast and slightly smoked aftertaste.
