The Foundry now famous for its beer once found fame on the world stage for its world-class production of street lighting; illuminating streets from New York to Amsterdam. With some of those lamps still lighting the city around us we brewed a porter with real history. The coffee-chocolate malt bill is taken from a historical recipe that made its way to New Zealand before we brought it back and added lashes of our famous local flower, East Kent Goldings hops. We hope you enjoy it as much as we do.

Cask handpull at the Foundry Brewpub. Very dark brown with lasting cream head. Very choccy porter. Some roast but uts moderate. This is all about the smooth choc flavours. Yep its half decent. Good flavours. Good mouthfeel.
