Town Hall Combustion Junction

Minneapolis Town Hall Brewery Combustion Junction Smoked Porter.

In the eye: solid blackness in this, with a rich, brown head atop, settling into a slim ring.

In the nose: Coffee, chocolate, smoke. Sweet, dark, delightful.

In the mouth: Full-bodied, rich and tasty, densely textured. Big chocolate malt meets robust smoke, with a little bit of heat. Here's a beer I can truly dig. This mini-growler is empty in no time at all.

A re-brew of Travis Lott's best in show Smoked Porter recipe from the 2016 Byggvir's Big Beer Cup at the Minnesota Renaissance Festival. 7.9% ABV.
