473ml can - a 'Wheat Porter', which sounds like someone who works on a fancy farm. I'm here all night, folks!
This beer pours a murky, dark orangish brown colour, with two fingers of puffy, loosely foamy, and bubbly beige head, which leaves some decent webbed lace around the glass as it evenly evaporates.
It smells of bready and doughy cereal malt, bruised banana, bittersweet cocoa powder, ethereal wet char, and some tame earthy, musty, and dead floral hops. The taste is gritty and grainy caramel malt, a lesser spicy wheatiness, medium chocolate wafers, faint cafe-au-lait, some muddled black stone fruitiness, subtle wispy smoke, and more well-understated leafy, herbal, and musky floral hoppiness.
The carbonation is average in its palate-tickling frothiness, the body a solid middleweight, and generally smooth, with a wee airy creaminess arising as things warm up a tad out of the ol' basement bar fridge. It finishes off-dry, the malt and gentle frooty esters flouting their lingering prowess.
Overall - while this is a brew with mucho flavour, it's not particularly wheaty nor Porter-like in its bearing. At any rate, I like it, even though I own neither of the titular items, which is just as well, as my house isn't equipped with a fireplace (roaring or otherwise) either.
