Dark beer season is here! Nothing beats the smell of the brewhouse on S’morter brew day as layers of toasted, caramel, honey and chocolate malts are accentuated with an infusion of cocoa and a dash of vanilla and spice.
Very dark in color but not quite jet black; when held up to the light a deep mahogany red hue is revealed. Since this is a porter and not a stout, the body and finish are lighter than you might expect.
The aroma and first sip are dominated by bright notes of roasted cocoa and honey that transition into toasted cracker and spice. As S’morter lingers on the palate creamy marshmallow becomes apparent and finishes with the perfect touch of smoky char. The sweetness is subdued and there is a solid bittering hop addition to keep things balanced and highly inviting and drinkable. The S’more the Merrier!
