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 nice black with a light tan head. The heads lasting ability is okay. The laceing is okay also. Has a good coffee and chocolate aroma. Has a good carbination. Also has a good mouthfeel. A medium body. Watery to oily texture. Blended very well and some good flavors on the taste buds. Has a pretty good finish. As I drink more porter I seem to love them more and more. This one did not disapoint me.

Pours a deep brown with ruby showing through and a nice one finger off whit e head. Aromas of roasted malts, coffee, and a little chocolate. Flavor is roasty malt, a hint of bitter chocolate and hops.

This beer was a little disappointing for me, because their Yeti Imperial Stout is one of my all-time favorite beers. In terms of appearance, it lets a lot of light through, and the head is tall and fizzy due to overcarbonation in the beer. The flavor is pretty good, although it pales in comparision to Smuttynose’s beer of the same name.

Pours dark brown with tan head. Aromas of burnt malts and coffee. Roasted malt flavor with some coffee. A hint of chocolate sweetness with a bitter finish. Medium to full body with moderate carbonation.

Great deep black, brown color with think head. Smells great. The flavor is malty with a hint of bitter on the back end. Very even mouthfeel and is good but not great.

Was pleasantly surprised. Full bodied, moderate richness w/ chocolate undertones. Nice clean finish w/o being overly hoppy. Passed my "so-sad-my-bottle-is-empty" test. Will purchase six pack if my Fullers or Founders Porter is sold out.
