Porter

Black Pearl Porter

Tasting Notes:

It is exquisite...it is quite silky while at the same time being chewy from the oats. It poured with a nice head that dissolved into a nice lacing on the surface as I drink it...It almost has a liccorice-ness like in some of those historical porters, probably from all the chocolate, yet the lactose gives it a nice sweetness to balance it.
