Pluff Mud Porter
Holy City's GABF gold-winning American porter, named for the Lowcountry's pungent marsh mud. It smells and drinks like a classic porter — gentle chocolate and soft roast over a medium body, with light caramel sweetness and a silky, clean finish that stays refreshing even in the Charleston heat. A year-round mainstay and the beer that put the brewery on the map.
