2013 India Red Porter...


***New Beer Alert*** 2013 India Red Porter | Track #1

Style - India Red Porter [our own terminology] but brewed in the style of a Cascadian Dark Ale or Black IPA 

ABV - 7.70% 

IBUs - 80 

SRM - 24 

Hops: Centennial, Zythos, and Chinook in the boil | Chinook and Simcoe dry-hop 

Malts: Colorado Pale, Crystal, Munich, Victory, Pale Chocolate, Black, and Roasted Barley 

Tasting Notes: Pungent and resinous pine and bright citrus aroma, with a rich, roasty, and dark chocolate mouthfeel, finishing with a dry, and aggressive bitterness. The complexity of this beer is truly experienced as you drink a full glass of it. The enormous hop bite of the beer tends to fade back as your palate adjusts to it, and the softer and more subtle caramel and milk chocolate undertones in the body come forward. This rounds the beer out, refreshes the palate, and makes you crave another. Our India Red Porter is a true nod to the snowy Colorado winter and a plea for more of the same!
