hopIQ found 10 beers with the same chocolate and bitter character as Guinness West Indies Porter. Released in 2014 from the Brewers Project and reconstructed from an 1801 entry in the brewery diaries describing the forerunner of Foreign Extra Stout. It pours opaque ebony under a thick ivory head. The aroma carries chocolate, molasses, raisin and mocha coffee with cut grass and pine from the hopping. The palate sets dark chocolate, caramel and coffee against oak and vanilla, and a resinous, grassy bitterness lingers well past the swallow. Ranked by flavour match rather than popularity.
