Rich in color and character, our robust porter conjures up memories of decadent chocolate treats dipped in coffee. Hints of dark chocolate, roasted coffee and light malty sweetness are the result of a complex malt profile including chocolate malt, roasted wheat and roasted rye.

Draft schooner at the Virginia Inn, Seattle on 11th August 2025. Black as the Ace of Spades, beige crust. This is solid malty brew with coffee and chocolate hints, slight Rye influence nearly upsets the applecart for me.

Black pour with almost no head. Light but pleasing malty aroma. Malty body with roast chocolate and a bit of coffee. Lighter finish than you'd expect

Draft 12 oz pour at Stoup, listed as Stoup Porter, but confirmed to be the same. Pours a near black with a crop circle cream foam head. Very nice roasted aroma with bold chocolate. Robust roasted malt up front and throughout. Chocolate background, and threatens to be a bit smokey. Pairs nicely with Julie’s chocolate chip cookies. Thanks! This is what I typically look for in a porter. Very nicely done.
