Lapatt Porter
A robust porter returning after a long gap. Roasted malt leads with dark chocolate, coffee and a dry, char-edged bitterness, while darker caramel malt fills in behind with toffee and a raisin note. The body is medium full and smooth rather than heavy. Hop bitterness stays in support of the roast, and the finish is dry, roasty and long, the chocolate outlasting the coffee.
Tasting Notes
AI-generated sensory profile for Lapatt Porter
Serve at 10–13°C. Too cold mutes the roasted complexity that makes a good porter worth drinking slowly.
The classic — versatile, comfortable to hold and keeps the beer cool. No frills, no distractions: just the beer.
Drink within 6–12 months for best results. Baltic Porters can be aged longer.
