Plum Porter

◎ Appearance

Deep brown to nearly black, with excellent clarity and a dense, persistent tan head that clings to the glass in fine lacing. The color reflects the dark crystal malt base, while carbonation is moderate and consistent throughout.

◌ Aroma

The nose opens with prominent roasted character and dark stone fruits—plum takes the lead, supported by subtle chocolate and coffee notes. English noble hops (Pilgrim and Golding) contribute a restrained herbal earthiness that frames rather than dominates the fruit.

◐ Taste

Entry is smooth and malty, with roasted grain providing a solid foundation. The natural plum flavoring develops across the mid-palate with rich dark fruit character, while moderate bitterness (25 IBU) arrives cleanly without harshness. Coffee and toast notes weave through, creating a balanced interplay between sweetness and restraint.

◑ Finish

Medium length with a dry aftertaste dominated by roasted malt and lingering plum notes. The bitterness fades evenly, leaving a pleasant earthy dryness on the palate.

Serve at 10–13°C. Too cold mutes the roasted complexity that makes a good porter worth drinking slowly.

The classic — versatile, comfortable to hold and keeps the beer cool. No frills, no distractions: just the beer.
