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 RS HW, 22/12/17. Hazed golden orange with a decent off white cap. Nose is mango pulp, orange pith, pineapple, straw, light breads. Taste comprises bitter orange, lime cordial, mango, toasted grains, sharp citric bite, straw, lemon drizzle. Medium bodied, fine carbonation, semi drying close splashed with juicy hop bitterness. Decent enough fun time IPA and does what it says on the tin but the balance is just a touch off ... probs the lime presence ... a half is great but I couldn't session on this.
