Elk Rock Six Point Porter

Formerly brewed at Portland Brewing Company (Pyramid)
Style: Porter
Portland, Oregon USA

I’d forgotten about this one, had it a few times back in the day. Pretty much just your standard run of the mill porter, light chocolate flavor and a little too thin on mouthfeel. Not the best nor worst beer to ever be retired.

ehhh, a regular porter, same recipe as everyone else. Milky toasted oats and bran, nose is more milky than the flavor, and the body is thin.

Interesting dark ruby with coarse bubble effects. Aroma is bitter roast, instant coffee and metal. Kind of like sniffing an empty can of folgers. Some lighter caramelized malt overtones. Flavor is watery and dry with very little malt depth. Chocolate milk finish and jagged, overabundant carbonation. Dry and astringent. Not good. There’s some hog farm notes in here.

Nice dark color with a small tan head. Light chocolate and coffee flavors. A good but not great porter.

light chocolate aroma, medium dark brown, light bodied creaminess, dark and bittersweet chocolate malts, bitter watery and a slight metallic finish
