Bismarck Porter if you want a slightly fuller mouthfeel and a touch more warmth,
State Park Porter if you want cleaner lines and a drier finish.
Both clock in at nearly identical IBU profiles (33), so bitterness won't separate them—it's really about body weight and how the malt sits in your mouth. The 0.3% ABV difference is negligible, but Rhombus Guys seems to lean into richness while Arizona Wilderness favors restraint.

Bismarck Porter
Bismarck has that extra half-percent working for it—you feel the alcohol's warmth sitting underneath cocoa and dark cherry notes. There's a slight syrupy quality to the finish that isn't cloying, just present. It's the kind of porter that makes you slow down between sips rather than chase the glass.
State Park Porter
State Park drinks leaner and more architectural. The roast is cleaner, the finish snaps off faster, and there's almost a mineral dryness in the back that keeps you thirsty. It's a porter that doesn't overstay its welcome—more restraint, less indulgence.
