La Sagra Mulata

Tap to rate

Mulata is a porter built on a blend of roasted and pale barley malts, top fermented to 5 percent. It pours a deep coffee brown. The nose combines fresh-ground coffee with dark chocolate. The body is light for a dark beer, and the palate follows the nose with espresso, cocoa and a touch of toasted grain. A gentle roast bitterness runs underneath and dries the finish, leaving a faint note of burnt sugar.
