U-Boat (w/ Victory Brewing)
Smoked Porter Collab With Victory Brewing.
On the palate is a big dark malt sweetness, balanced by the blend of spicy Mittelfruh and citrussy Galena. Cocoa powder, rich dark chocolate, and ripe berries interplay with a toasty burnt sugar bitterness. The mouthfeel is thick and chewy with a treacly quality that doesn’t cloy, as it plays off against the hops and roast malt bitterness.

A good Porter is dependant on a long fermentation and cellaring process. Keep the temperature controlled as much as possible.
