Old Porter
Subtle roasted malts and a silky caramel finish, with a hint of sweetness in the aroma and English hops folded into a complex mix with the roast. Dark and creamy in the glass. Old Porter follows the traditional porter style at 4.5% ABV and won CAMRA's West Midlands Beer of the Year award in the porter category. It is brewed all year in the village of Enville.
