Notes & Comments:
It's baaaack! It's the triumphant return of the Hogshead Porter! (Oh wait, he didn't just say what I think he did . . . did he?) That's right. Chocolate and Balck Patent malts are the backbone of this beer. They are the roasted grains that give a porter its dark color and roasty flavor. Also worth notice is the pleasant bitterness from the Northern Brewers hops, and the creamy body and head.
"Have to work on carbonation (or sanitation), many bottles exploded. The actual beer tasted pretty good, nice mouth feel, cappuccino like head." -B.
