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.

Cask gravity at Firkin Alehouse Folkestone. Lovely hops. Pink grapefruit. Good mouth feel really dry finish. Lovely beer. Superb. I didn’t do this justice when I was in the pub. It’s terrific. Just a lovely pink grapefruit aroma, balancing malt and then this dry pink grapefruit hoppy finish. I took it over the Burning Sky Plateau which was on, it was that good.

Cask at Wallington 2014. It pours hazy deep brown with a small off-white head. The nose is soft, roasty, chocolate, salty liquorice, unami and earthy. The taste is smooth, toasty, earth, watery aspect, liquorice, ash and dark fruit and some astringency with a dry finish. Light body and soft carbonation. Too thin unfortunately. So-so.
