Export Porter 1750

◎ Appearance

Nearly opaque black with deep brown edges when held to light, characteristic of a traditional porter. A dense tan head forms on the pour and persists with good retention, leaving distinct lacing on the glass. The body appears full and viscous, with minimal carbonation visible.

◌ Aroma

Roasted malt dominates the nose with pronounced coffee and cocoa notes, supported by subtle dark caramel sweetness. A gentle alcohol warmth emerges as the beer opens, without harshness. Background notes of dark fruit and molasses complete the complex, inviting aromatic profile.

◐ Taste

The palate enters with rich roasted character and bitter coffee, building into a substantial mid-palate with caramel maltiness and subtle dark fruit complexity. Bitterness is moderate and well-integrated, never aggressive. The elevated alcohol content (10.5% ABV) provides body and warming spice, balanced by the residual sweetness from specialty malts.

◑ Finish

The finish is long and warming, with roasted and coffee notes lingering alongside a gentle bitter edge. A pleasant alcohol heat persists without becoming thin or sharp.
