Rickard's Dark
Brewed in the style of an English porter and the darkest beer of the Rickard's family. It pours deep brown, with roasted malt, cocoa and a light coffee note in the aroma. A touch of Quebec maple syrup rounds the malt without turning the beer sweet. The texture is creamy, the roast bitterness light, and the finish smooth and short.
