A robust Porter, Drake’s Black Robusto has a roasty character and is stronger in alcohol than a regular porter (thus “robust’). Dark black in color with chocolate maltiness from seven different types of barley and spicy herbal hop character from Northdown and Williamette hops.

    Seriously thick tan head. Dark black body. Intense roasted coffee aroma. Flavors of the espresso and black licorice. Very chewy body. Slightly bitter finish. Would definitely buy this again!

    On tap at Drake’s Barrel House pouring up deep coffee darkness with thin amber edges and light tan head that leaves behind spotty lacing. The aroma is pulsing and forcing up bold notes of burnt malts, dark roasted maltiness and dark roasted coffee. The taste is just as bold with dark roasted coffee, dark roasted malts, some burnt malts and then slippery sweet malts hidden away here and there. It ends pretty dry with lingering coffee, dark roasted malts and burnt malts. Big Robusto that I think would be a bit better with some earthiness too.

    22 oz. 6.3% abv. Jet black pour. Flavor and aroma of toasted malt, dark chocolate and a hint of hops are robust indeed. Feel is a bit thinner but this drinks very smooth. 8.5-8.5-7.5-8.5-8.
