Magnetar is the double-strength sibling of Pulsar, our Smoked Raspberry Porter. We’ve punched up the raspberry addition even further to keep this big brew in solidly porter territory, with vibrant, aromatic raspberry notes leaping right out of the glass.
A bright, refreshing tartness leads on the palate, akin to a Flanders red. Further into the robust porter body, deep chocolate and coffee undertones take over, while toasted cherry wood, primed on Gravity Spirits' Fertodi Raspberry Pálinka, lends subtle vanilla and an extra burst of soft red fruit to the lingering finish.

Draft at Constellation, Budapest. Poured a murky dark brown colour with a short-lived, frothy tan head and a reddish hue. The aroma is big raspberry. The flavour is moderate sour, with a crisp, tart sour raspberry palate. There is no room for anything else. Medium bodied with soft carbonation.

On tap at the brewpub. Black coloured, medium sized beige head, raspberry in the nose. Light roasty, chocolate, dominant acidic raspberry, discreet vanilla and moderate alcohol in the finish. Note so balanced but ok overall.
