St Peters Old Style Porter

Botella. Very dark brown colour with a creamish fairly well alsting beige head. Sweet brown sugar roasty malty bit chocolate aroma. Good filling mouthfeel. The flavour is sweet with roasty malt and caramel along with some chocolate and dark fruits. Ok porter, bit thin though.

One pint bottle. Black with ruby highlights. Sizeable tan head. The head really lingers and leaves behind nice lacing. Roasted malt, caramel, and a little wine in the nose. Low carbonation with a medium-thick mouthfeel. Flavor is similar to the nose, minus the wine. A little coffee, lots of caramel, some earthiness. It also has a dry bitterness that works well with the malty sweetness. Overall this is a very enjoyable porter!

(Bottle from Co-op, Long Stratton) Poured black with an off white small creamy head. Smell of rich chocolate, vanilla, roasted malt and dark fruit eg plums. Taste of more plums, chocolate. A rich taste with a drying coffee bitter finish. Smooth mouthfeel and strong. Good.

Medium mouthfeel, a little bland overall. Not bad, not particularily great either. 1 pint bottle.

Bottled. Poured dark w/ smallish head..Kind of watery and an odd smell that just seemed off.

Probably one of the thinnest porters I have ever had. It is hoppy (which I do not like in my porter) and leaves your mouth wickedly dry (not good after a whole day of skateboarding). I prefer the worst baltik over this any day.

Thanks to rcasta. It was a nice classic porter. Very smoky and peaty. Light bodied, but full of flavor.

Bottle. Poured deep red brown with thin lasting beige head. Much lacing. Aroma is malt and roast, fairly mild. Medium body. Malty flavour with coffee and chocolate notes. Light finish with malt and coffee. Would drink again.
