Dark Porter Beast is a full-bodied dark porter. It’s dark mahogany-brown in colour, with a hint of crimson. Rich aromas of toffee, treacle, Mocha coffee, vinous fruit, and chocolate. There’s more complexity on the palate with fruitcake, a hint of rum, more Mocha coffee, herbal hoppiness, vinous fruit, and a bittersweet finish that’s smooth yet complex, rich but not cloying. Hops Goldings, Challenger and First Gold. Brewed with a mix of pale ale, chocolate and crystal malts. Tastes Great With Ice cream where the vanilla flavours would work well with the bittersweet richness of the porter. It’s also ideal for a ripe Stilton or even in a rich winter stew. Try it also in cake mix, a local Exmoor favourite is Exmoor Beast fruitcake with whisky icing.
