Named for those who worked to carry and deliver goods, this 1862 ale is a combination of the strong ale flavors with the drinkability of a small ale. A historical mix of light and dark malts provide a medium body with roasted coffee and chocolate flavors highlighted with a slight hop bitterness and a pronounced sourness.

Draft. A- Pink lemonade, mild tart cherry, slightly medicinal, subtle oak tannins. A- Black color, dark liquid, no head. T- Tart, lemon juice, sugar, mild raspberry, cocoa. P- Medium body, creamy texture, soft carbonation, tart finish. O- On cask. Afraid this was going to taste like an infected porter. Thankfully it followed more of the sour ale suit and was practically only porter in color. Interesting beer. Not a favorite but drinkable.

Sample at the brewpub. The beer is a dark brown color with a thin light beige head that diminishes quickly to a wispy film. Short strings of lacing. Aroma of roast malt, tart fruit and chocolate. Light-bodied with flavors of chocolate malt, mildly sour fruit and a bit of coffee. The finish is moderately tart with a fruity and malty aftertaste. Decent overall.
