Stovepipe porter

The Beer Stats:
  • Beer Name: StovePipe Porter
  • Brewery: Otter Creek (Vermont)
  • Style: Porter
  • ABV: 4.4%
  • IBU: 28
  • Pour Color:  A black pour letting little light through the bottle.




     On pour this one had a nice fluffy head that you would expect. Chocolate, roast, and a slight sweet smell comes off the glass when smelled. On first splash you realize this one has a nice thick body. Like a porter should. The taste is a nice smokey, roasted, chocolate taste. Almost a hint of coffee in there too. Really a great porter that no one could complain about. 
     This one is a nice full bodied porter. I find this to be a good beer to use for chili or stew. A nice dark roasted flavor to this one helps add to most recipes. This one also ain't to bad just out the bottle either. Here's a recipe using this one in chili. Enjoy!
