Beers similar to Exmoor Beast

Porter·United Kingdom·6.6% ABV·One of 169 Porters in hopIQ·

hopIQ found 10 beers that share Exmoor Beast's chocolate and full-bodied character. Toffee, treacle, mocha coffee, vinous fruit and chocolate on the nose. The palate adds fruitcake, a hint of rum, more mocha and a herbal hop note. Full-bodied, dark mahogany with a crimson edge. The finish is bittersweet, smooth yet complex, rich without turning cloying. 6.6%, first brewed in autumn 1992, on draught and in the bottle.
