Description
Yards has been brewing Philly's beer since 1994. We’ve grown from a garage-sized operation in Manayunk all the way up to our current location at 500 Spring Garden Street in Northern Liberties. And we couldn't have done it without your support through the years. Our beers always have and always will be brewed, bottled, kegged, and canned for the hard working people of Philadelphia and beyond.

12oz bottle pours a lightly hazy deep gold with a lacing, creamy white head. Nose is very floral, very sweet, melon, rose petal, yeasty esters, banana, clove. Flavor is sweet, malty, a little grass, something a touch medicinal, honey, banana, spice. Full bodied but dry. Too much yeast, needed to be toned down a bit.

Location: Draft at The City Tavern, 4/7/11

Aroma: The aroma is fairly malty, some caramel and chocolate notes
Appearance: The pour is dark brown with a decent beige head atop it
Flavor: The taste is fairly malty as well, medium sweet, similar to the nose
Palate: The body is light-medium for the style, slightly watery, with average carbonation
Overall Impression: This was a fairly straight forward porter with some decent malty flavors. Nothing too exciting, but the recipe has held up well-enough over time. Solid, enjoyable stuff.

Merryweather Post Pavillion, MD 24oz ($9.50): Pours a dark amber color with a nice head. Aroma is very malt heavy, but you can detect a good layer of British style hops. Taste is a little more bitter than I would expect a mild ale to be; however, the hopping is done very much in keeping with British style hopping and this does not strive for American excess. They tried to make a session ale and it worked well for the boys at Yards.
