Description
We all have a first story. It’s the one we tell to strangers, job interviewers and people we meet during the course of a day. It’s who we are, where we’re from, what we do, people we know. But our second story is all about the passion we have deep inside. It’s the things we love to do because it defines who we are.

At 2nd Story Brewing Co., our passion is the craft beer that you can witness for yourself being brewed on the second floor. It’s where our second story comes together. It’s where our stellar beer is hand-crafted and handed down.

Roast and some caramel. Appearance is a little odd - much lighter than the usual black for porters. Beer is pretty solid though otherwise. Bittersweet finish, a touch too much caramel but not a hige detracter. Tap at brewery.

On tap at 2nd Story, pours a clear dark reddish amber with a small beige head. Aroma brings out earthy hops with a toasted caramel malt base. Flavour is extremely earthy and spicy, with spicy, harsh hops and bready malt. Harsh and improperly balanced. No good.
