Red Wing lies at the head of the greatest lake on the Mississippi River – Lake Pepin. Twenty-five miles long and surrounded by mountainous bluffs, Lake Pepin is a natural and recreational paradise. But legend says that it is also the home of Pepie, the mysterious creature that lives in the dark depths of the lake. It is only fitting, then, that Pepie’s Porter be a dark beer with a mysterious complexity in flavor that derives from several varieties of caramelized, flaked, and roasted barley. While you might not be able to locate the elusive Pepie, you can always depend on finding satisfaction in a Pepie’s Porter.
American porter with coffee-like notes, balanced by a touch of honey malt.

Draught @ Brwpub: this one pours an opaque, dark brown (almost black) color. There was a thin light brown head that didn’t linger long but did leave some lacing. It has a good nose. Coffee, roasted malts, some chocolate. The taste is very good. Chocolate, roasted malts, some coffee. Nicely balanced and smooth. I’d definitely have another!
