Bell's Porter


Bell's Porter. Alc. 5.6% by Vol. We're looking at nearly 12 year old notes, from January, 2003:

Nearly black in color, with a full, dark tan head.

Aroma is rich and roasty, toasty, even slightly burnt.

Taste: Dark chocolate comes out on top, with hints of nuts and spices. Full-bodied, good texture, with loads of tingly hops. A fine rendition of the style.
1/14/03. What we have there is a more restrained, less hyperbolic review than those that I did around about then.

Label gobbledygook: "A robust porter brewed from a tasty blend of dark malts with a rich, roasted flavor. Enjoy it anytime, like now, for instance."
