Double Gold Medal Winning Stout

It’s yer only man… The jewel in our crown was celebrated, many years in advance, by the prescient Jem Casey, Poet of the Pick and Bard of Booterstown, when he remarked that when “…no rashers grease your pan / A pint of plain is yer only man.” We agree and we’re not alone. Our Plain Porter – porter is a lighter version of stout – is a double gold medal winner. Its subtly aromatic, a silky, round mouthful with a touch of bitterness kicking in at the finish.

330ml bottle. Pours dark brown with a medium-sized beige head. Aroma is roasted malt, coffee. Taste is watery, roastiness. Mild bitter finish.
7th Sep 2019, half-pint in the Porthouse, Temple Bar, Dublin. Decent enough Porter, made the mistake of having alongside their excellent Oyster Stout, so this seemed a little weak and watery compared to that. Nothing wrong with this though, plenty of chocolate maltiness to chew on.
Bei diesem Porter wurde an der Geschmacksschraube gedreht, damit es nicht in die süßlich-malzige geht, sondern man will dem edlen Hopfen eine kleine Bühne bieten. Ein Versuch, der etwas nach hinten losging. So ist es anderen Portern gegenüber eher schmachbrüstig, der Hopfen kommt trotzdem nicht ganz raus.
Man kann es wohl leicht trinken, aber ein wirklich tolles Geschmackserlebnis ist es nicht.
On tap at the brewpub. Pours dark brown with a thick tan nitro head. Aroma of roasted malt, chocolate malt. Flavor of bitter roasted malt, bitter hops, with sweet chocolate malt in the finish. Pretty good, mild bitterness, chocolatey.

Draught at Porterhouse Temlle Bar, Dublin, Ireland (€2.70/half). Poured an opaque black (deep ruby red under strong light) with 5mm of light tan dense foam that retained very well and laced very well. Aroma of roasted and smokey grain. Taste strongly of roasted malt with slight coffee, slight sweetness and slight coffee bitterness. Medium body. Smooth and slightly dry with moderate coffee bitterness on a lingering finish.
Certainly better than average porter. Creamy and velvety on the palate. Somewhat exciting and unique, but also just a good example of the style. Ammutsøn Vienna

No cojo bha parecido una gran portes un poco falta d cuerpo y consistencia por fuera luce muy bien pero su densidad se me queda corta. Como digo el aspecto en copa es impecable oscura con buena espuma y duradera. De aromas cafeteros muy suaves y un poco a regaliz . No le parezca una Porter suave para niciarte ennlasnporter ya que le falta algo para llegar.
