Description
IMPORTANT - Note to members, when searching for, or adding beers, please use the beer name, not the style.

We are a dynamic and growing 15BBL brewery based in Tunbridge Wells, Kent producing beer in Cask, Keg & Can. Pig and Porter is a passion born of necessity, nurtured in a shed, fuelled by belief and fulfilled by the creation of beers that we love. We’re now on a mission to share our beers with everyone who wants to drink better. All of our beers are now vegan friendly with the exception of Honey Hill Wit which contains honey. Pig and Porter now has a growing team in a shiny new site with a new head brewer Riina Laats taking our beers in a new direction.

Keg at MS HW, 24/11/18. Mahogany brown with a decent beige cap. Nose is dark malts, light spice, biscuit, cocoa rub. Taste comprises toffee, brown sugar, hint of potato I think, biscuit, light spice. Medium bodied, fine carbonation, semi drying close. Ok for a novelty affair but nothing I'd revisit.

5.3% On tap at Euston Tap. Dark brown rr beer ruby lasting beige head. Spice dark ale. Spice aroma. Like a pumpkin spice. It's OK though. As you don't get many spice like this in the UK and a lot of the time it's too much especially nutmeg but actually it's fine. A half pint is fine though.
