hopIQ found 10 beers with the same roasted and bitter character as San Francisco Porter. San Francisco Porter joined the De Ranke range in 2024 as a nod to the American porter tradition of California. It is brewed in the steam-beer manner: a bottom-fermenting yeast carries out the main fermentation, and a top-fermenting yeast takes over for the refermentation in the bottle. The result is black-brown and dry at 5.5 percent. Roasted malt, bitter chocolate, coffee and a touch of dried fruit shape the aroma. The palate balances roast and caramel against a pronounced hop bitterness that lingers long into a very dry finish. Ranked by flavour match rather than popularity.
