Driftwood Brewery is located in Victoria, British Columbia, Canada. This beer contains a partial sour mash which was not uncommon in pre-Industrial Revolution Porters. It lends a very subtle tartness to the beer.
The colour of this English style porter is deep, dark and black. With a light brown, thich and foamy head.
You can smell the chocolate malts balanced with the hops with nice nutty and roasted undertones.
It starts with a big roasty and malty flavour, the hops hit in the middle and take over in the end and it fades away leaving some maltiness.
It feels rich and smooth, like sipping a cold latte.
Overall this is a nice porter, fairly standard of the style with the surprise of such a nice clean finish. It would go well with any pub fare or other rich foods.
