Winding Path Brewing Co. 885 Porter
Porter 6.1 º
This American Porter presents a robust sensory journey defined by a deep, malty foundation. The primary profile is characterized by an assertive roasted malt presence, evoking notes of bittersweet chocolate and toasted coffee beans. These darker elements are balanced by a noticeable toffee and caramel sweetness that provides a smooth, indulgent mid-palate. A moderate bitterness from American hops lends a clean, resinous edge, preventing the malt richness from becoming cloying. As it warms, subtle earthy undertones emerge, finishing with a satisfying, slightly dry roast character. The 6.1% ABV provides a gentle, well-integrated warmth that complements the beer’s substantial, medium-full body.
Appearance. Very dark brown with deep ruby highlights; opaque in the glass. It supports a thick, persistent tan head with excellent lacing.
Aroma. Moderately strong aroma of dark chocolate and roasted coffee beans. Background notes of sweet toffee and caramel malt richness. Low earthy and resiny hop character with very subtle dark fruit esters.
Taste. Initial impression of rich chocolate and toasted grain. The mid-palate features a malty sweetness reminiscent of toffee. Medium-high bitterness balances the malt, leading to a clean, dry finish with lingering roasted grain and a light resinous hop flavor.
Mouthfeel. Medium-full body with a smooth, slightly creamy texture. Moderate carbonation. A light, pleasant alcohol warmth is present without being harsh.
