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.

Medium brown with reddish hues that produced a small off-white head and some lace. The aroma hints of toffee, nuts, wildflowers, sundued fruits (current and plums), smoke, and dusty yeast esters. Smoky and malty tastes upfront with some sweet nutty sublime tones. Coffee and bitter finish, the smoky character lingers. Quaffable, no bad qualities but nothing too bold either.
