Hearty and wine-dark, with a rich, smoky taste, Three Threads Porter takes its name from 19th-century taverns where, at the end of each day, brewers combined different batch strengths, called "threads." Their customers were often dockside workers—or porters.

    Intersesting beer here. I was caught off guard by the flavors of this beer, almost being wine-like in character. Aroma was buttery, malty sweet, chocolate and toffee. Flavors had some roasty bitterness to it, but it was also rather vinuous. I think it would take awhile for a porter like this to grown on my, but it has the potential to do so.

    Pours a very dark brown with a typical head. The first pour didn't leave much lace but the second pour's was quite nice. Smells of chocolate, coffee, and grainy malt, though a bit more intense than the standard porter. Taste is nice and improves as the beer warms. Definate chocolate and coffee, but well balanced. Some darker fruits hide in the afterglow. Mouthfeel is a bit thicker than standard, which is nice. Overall this is a very nice Porter - coming from a guy who isn't a huge Porter fan.

    05.07.05 Thanks to hopdog at Heavyweight open house. Nearly black, ample brown head. Very roasty nose. Dopple-ish and heavy. Nutty. Sweet-tart, bitter. Thin up front and finishes thin but with lingering coffee. Lingering tarticity.

    Dark black color. Small white foamy head. Aroma is roasted malt, chocolate and vanilla. A full to medium bodied porter. Malts are choclately and a little nutty in the roasting. Hops are slightly spicy. Nicely balanced. Creamy smooth mouthfeel. There is also a very slight touch of wood and smoke. Finishes with a nice mix of chocolate and vanilla. Mouthfeel is full and round. Finish is clean and dry. Aftertaste is slightly bitter
