Street Porter

◎ Aussehen

Deep mahogany to near-black in the glass, with a clarity that speaks to traditional malt selection and careful conditioning. A modest tan head forms and recedes to a thin collar, leaving delicate traces of lacing on the glass walls. Carbonation is restrained, appropriate to the style's understated character.

◌ Aroma

The nose opens with roasted grain and dark rye bread, followed by notes of coffee and cocoa. Subtle tobacco and liquorice emerge beneath, with a wisp of bitter orange peel and dried raisin complexity. Traditional Kentish hops provide an herbal restraint rather than aromatic dominance, allowing the roasted malt character to remain central.

◐ Geschmack

Entry is smooth and slightly sweet from the caramel malts, developing into a nuanced mid-palate where dark fruit, nuts, and earthy tobacco flavours interweave. The 40 IBU bitterness arrives with purpose but no aggression, drying the finish cleanly without harshness. At 4.8%, the body remains moderate and approachable, never heavy or cloying.

◑ Abgang

The bitterness persists through a medium-length finish, leaving behind traces of rye bread crust and bitter orange. A pleasant dryness lingers without astringency, inviting another sip.
