English style Porter with mild chocolate notes and a crisp, clean finish. We named our porter The Hero in honor of Lt. Edwin Gorbet, the pilot who saved Jinks Junior High.

Taste from a crowler filled at the brewpub.
L - Deepest brown color and no light comes through. Piles of thick, sticky tan head.
S - Aromas of roast grain, chocolate and low smoke. Hops and yeast character are absent, as is appropriate for style.
T - Chocolate and coffee. Strong roasted grain, almost burnt and slightly acrid. Earthy hops at a low level. Off-dry finish is slightly chalky.
F - Medium to heavy body with some silkiness. Low but creamy carbonation. Medium hops bitterness. No alcohol presence.
O - This is a solid porter. It doesn't blow my socks off, but I can't call out any significant faults either.
