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.

Dark, dark garnet with a medium, frothy, tan head. Aroma is surprisingly light; mostly chocolate and coffee; maybe a tiny touch of dark fruits. Flavor chocolate, roast, coffee, and a touch of vanilla. Medium-thick body; frothy; moderate sticky. Nice, easy-drinking porter.

Pours a nice black color with a medium to short lived beige head. Smell is roasty, a bit of coffee and some light cardboard like malt. Taste is lighty bitter and nicely roasty but a bit of stale-ish cardboard like flavor in there too. Medium to very slightly full body and normal carbonation. Overall, very drinkable and a decent porter with a nice roasty bitter finish.

Bouteille de 12 oz achetée chez Julio’s Liquors (Westborough, MA). Arôme: Odeur de céréales grillées et de chocolat. Apparence: La couleur est noire opaque avec une faible densité de bulle. Présence d’un large col beige mousseux et d’une fine dentelle sur le verre. Saveur: Goût de café et de chocolat avec une pointe de lactose. Durée moyenne de l’arrière goût. Palette: Le corps est moyen avec une texture minérale. Forte effervescence en bouche. Présence de torréfaction en arrière goût. (Rating #1825)

Pours to a dark brown with a creamy light brown head. Aroma is sweet chocolate and light roasted coffee. Flavor is full with chocolate/coffee malt taste. Very tasty.

Poured a nice dark dark brown with a tan head. Aroma was very roasted and coffeeish. Flavor was also very roasted coffee, and a bitter hoppy finish, not too sweet at all

12 oz bottle. Poured deep brown with an amber hue. It has a small tan head. Aroma of roasted malts, chocolate, coffee. Tastes comes in strong roasted malts, coffee, chocolate, vanilla, and some hop bittering in the finish. A little thin, but not bad.
