The porter is a dark brown sweet full-bodied beer. There is an initial citrus hop flavor right at the beginning which gives way to chocolate, caramel, and toffee flavors. The Porter has nitrogen which gives it a full bodied, creamy texture. The nitrogen helps to hold in most of the sweet flavor and aroma until it is drank. The original porter was brown, low in alcohol, and sweet. The porter as a style is a precursor to the more commonly known stout. Porters since that have evolved to become richer, darker, and more alcoholic. Our porter is an homage to the original easy drinking beer.

Had a pint at the Bank st. brewpub with Chopz. Has a nice huge thick creamy head, very stout-ish. Good lacing. Very dark amber/brown colour. Has some vanilla aromas and also malts. Somewhat yeasty. Creamy mouthfeel. Flavours of coffee, hints of caramel and a little bit nutty. Sweet bitter aftertaste with oa bit of toffee. Pretty good.

Their 2012 edition was released last week, with an outside party in the cold. Now, enjoying it inside. The head is beautifully creamy, beige, lasts the whole time and gives out decent lacing. The brew is clean and copper colour. Butterscotch nose with a little caramel and roasted malts. Wet refreshing, but kind of light mouthfeel. Mildly creamy when sipping the head (creamed up by the nitro). The roasted malt blends well with the hop, to not have too much burnt taste. Fruity notes (apples), nuts, molasses and very mild coffee. Too cold at first, but as it warmed up, it became much better. Easy drinkability as not too thick.
