This is a well-rounded porter, brewed to be assertively roasty and toasty with an approachably pleasant body; at once, soothing and invigorating. In 2006 Picaroons simply needed a porter, so Man’s Best Friend was born. RIP Hamish the brewery Scottish Terrier, who’s pictured on the label. *Label Drawing by Tom Giberson

    Looks dark brown with almost no transparency. Creamy head lasts and produces lots of lacing. Aroma of roasted malt and somehow ,tin. Flavour has moderate roastiness ,dark chocolate and licorice. Medium creamy mouthfeel. Full flavoured for 5% abv. Like to try this on draught.

    Bought this one in Edmonston, N.B. when I was on tour with my band. Pours a dark brown with red highlights. The head is big, light brown, creamy, very long lasting and creates thick creamy lacing. The nose is more hoppy than malty. Was expecting lots of burnt malt, but no, lots of hop instead with mild chocolate in the background. Smooth velvet mouthfeel. The taste is pretty mellow. Little hints of dark malt, but not really any coffee, chocolate, nor dark fruits. More yeast and hop than anything else. In the brewers' log, says he used Liberty and Tettnang hops. Maybe a little chocolate comes out in the finish. A very easy-drinking porter that looks great.
