Beers similar to Edmund Fitzgerald
hopIQ found 10 beers with the same roasted and chocolate character as Edmund Fitzgerald. Named for the ore freighter that sank in Lake Superior in November 1975 with crew members from Northeast Ohio aboard. The brewers call it an American take on porter, because the grist combines chocolate malt with roasted barley, over two-row and medium crystal, hopped with Apollo, Willamette and Cascade. It pours dark mahogany with garnet edges. Roast and black coffee lead the nose, bittersweet chocolate and a little toffee follow on the palate, and an earthy, herbal hop bite dries the finish. Ranked by flavour match rather than popularity.
