Plum Porter Nitro

Tap to rate

Sweet, fruity nose, plum and other stone fruits throughout, a delicate blend of classic hops for balance, and a silky-smooth, creamy body from the nitro pour: this is Plum Porter at 4.9% ABV, from keg or nitro can. Cans are turned upside down twice before pouring to wake the nitrogen. The nitro version won Gold in Keg Speciality & Flavoured Beer at the 2026 SIBA Midlands & West awards.

Tasting Notes

AI-generated sensory profile for Plum Porter Nitro

◎ Appearance

Deep mahogany-brown with a rich, dark ruby hue characteristic of the style. The nitro carbonation produces a dense, persistent cream-colored head with excellent retention and fine Schaumkleiden down the glass. The body is opaque and full, with a silky visual weight.

◌ Aroma

The nose leads with ripe stone fruits—plum, damson, and subtle apricot notes—layered over soft roasted Malz character. Beneath lies a gentle floral and herbal backdrop from the classic Edelhopfen, which provides balance without dominating. The overall impression is sweet and approachable, with no harsh or burnt edges.

◐ Taste

The palate opens with plum sweetness and light stone-fruit complexity, supported by a medium body that feels creamy and full without heaviness. Roasted Malz backbone provides a subtle earthy anchor, while the Edelhopfen delivers measured bitterness (33 IBU) that arrives mid-palate to prevent cloying. The finish remains balanced, with neither fruit nor bitterness overwhelming the other.

◑ Finish

The aftertaste fades gently, with plum notes lingering briefly before a subtle roasted Malz dryness emerges. Clean and refreshing despite the full body, the nitro carbonation adding a whisper of textural softness to the close.

Serve at 10–13°C

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

Pint glass

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

Drink within 6–12 months for best results. Baltic Porters can be aged longer.
