Commercial Description:
St. Bridget, a legendary Irish saint, created a sensation by turning her bathwater into beer. What better way to celebrate her worthy miracle than with our zymurgistic tribute to her feat, St. Bridget's Porter. St. Bridget's is a smooth, elegant, and chocolaty brown porter. Brimming with coffee and chocolate characteristics from dark barley malts, St. Bridget's is carefully hopped to provide the perfect complement to its malty robustness.

(Bottle) Pours a dark brown body with a small beige head. Aroma of coffee and roasted malt. Flavor of dark malts and light sweet chocolate with a nice carbonation.

Pours dark with a thick, frothy head. Chocolate aroma, but somewhat sour. Mildly sweet, with heavy chocolate and coffee flavors. Nice, light finish for a porter, with a bit of hops. Good flavor, but the aroma isn’t very pleasant.

Black pour with no head. Burnt coffe aroma and some roasted malts. The medium palate lies underneath bitter and almost burnt coffee flavors. Very one dimensional effort from Great Divide.

Thin light brown head of fine bubbles. Nice chocolaty hamburger aroma. Some roasted grains and toffee also. Color is a very dark brown with a hint of red around the edges. Dark coffee and chocolate in the flavor. Little dry and bitter from the coffee. Little gritty also. Decent roastyness and medium bodied. Lingering bitterness at the finish. A pretty good generic porter.

12 oz. bottle courtesy of Secret Santa. Pours a very deep dark brown, nearly black, with a thin, creamy light tan head that lasted about halfway through the glass. Pleasant aroma of roasted malt and a bit of chocolate. The roasted malt was much stronger in the flavor, however, it reminded almost of burnt toast. Some bitter coffee noted in the flavor as well, which didn’t help. The surpising thing was with these strong flavors, the mouthfeel was actually a bit thin. This beer lacked any real depth.

12oz. bottle. Dark brown with red highlights and a small beige head. Mild aroma of lightly roasted malt, some chocolate and a bit of cola. Bitter roasted flavor with some coffee and dark chocolate. A touch of lactic sourness on the finish.

A 12 oz bottle with a month and week bottled on lable. The beer poured a dark brown with a coffee color head. The smell is of light hops and not much else. The taste is a wicked toasted malt and chocolate and toffe taste. Nice carbonation and smooth finish. This is a freaking good beer, not to heavy and full of flavor!
