Commercial Description:
One legend has it that thirsty railway luggage handlers in England consumed mixture of different ales in the same pint called "entire." As this mixture gained popularity among the porters, brewers came up with a new style of ale to keep up with the demand. In brewing Concord Junction Porter, we have chosen a variety of ingredients to create its smooth complexity. Grains- Brown and Chocolate malts add nutty, chocolate, and coffee flavors. Hops- Willamette hops create balance with a floral spiciness.

12 ounce bottle in pint glass. Pours deep dark brown with lasting dense tan head. Fresh aroma of chocolate chip cookie dough. Flavors of chocolate covered raisins with clean but not overly dry finish. Medium body, nice mouthfeel. A very good session porter.

Bottle. There were hints of cherry and chocolate in the aroma. The color was kind of like cherry coke, mostly brown with red hints. The beer had a mocha flavor to it, without the cherry that was in the aroma. The mouthfeel was a touch sticky, and a bit bitter. A very nice beer.
