Porter·United States·One of 219 Porters in hopIQ·

hopIQ found 10 beers that share Black Strap Molasses Porter's roasted and chocolate character. Two-row, crystal and Munich malts form the base for big chocolate and black-malt flavors, and black strap molasses added in the boil lifts the chocolate and coffee of the malt. Roasty and dry in a light body, with a prominent molasses flavor and an earthy bitterness from Goldings and Fuggle hops. 37 IBU, from Waikiki's first brewery.
