La Source Beer Co. Portal
Other Styles 6.9 º
Portal is an evocative Spice, Herb, or Vegetable Beer that reimagines the ancient gruit tradition through a modern botanical lens. The sensory experience is lead by a lush, aromatic meadow of lavender and rose, providing a perfume-like elegance that is immediately captivating. Chamomile adds a soothing, apple-like sweetness, while heather contributes a grounding, honeyed earthiness. The inclusion of butterfly pea flowers lends a unique visual character to the pour. At 6.9% ABV, the beer carries enough weight to support the complex floral layers, balancing herbal bitterness against a clean malt backdrop. It is a sophisticated, floral-forward ale with a dry, lingering botanical finish.
Appearance. Distinctive hue ranging from deep violet to misty pinkish-amber (SRM 10–18 depending on pH), featuring a moderate, pale-lavender tinted head with fair retention. Slight haze is present from the significant botanical infusions.
Aroma. High intensity floral bouquet; dominant notes of lavender perfume and fresh rose petals are supported by the delicate, tea-like sweetness of chamomile. Heather provides a subtle, honey-soaked hay undertone. Malt remains in the background as a light crackery scent with virtually no hop aroma.
Taste. The palate opens with a floral wash of rose water and lavender, transitioning into the herbal, slightly tannic bitterness of heather. Chamomile provides a mid-palate softness reminiscent of herbal tea. The malt base offers supportive flavors of bread crust and light honey, while the finish is off-dry and highly fragrant with botanical esters.
Mouthfeel. Medium body with moderate carbonation. A gentle, well-integrated alcohol warmth provides a pleasant lift. A very faint botanical astringency from the flower petals adds structure and a clean, refreshing snap to the finish.
