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.

Ryan/Casey. Dark brown body with slight poppy head. Milky nose, with slight hops notes. Strong taste of milk and malts. Punchy finish. Very nice. Wouldn’t throw this out with the bathwater. Another delectable Great Divide.

bottle-this was a pretty good porter-nothing to write home about other than the excellent aroma-lots of carbonatino for a porter IMO, but still a good standby brew!

Deep brownish black, red highlights, tan creamy head. Nose is full of roasted coffee, cream, chocolate chip cookie, caramel, and a slight hint of vanilla. Chocolate malt is well balanced by the hops. Medium bodied, soft carbonation, dry bitter-sweet chocolate finish.. A nice session porter....

12 oz bottle. Dark dark brown pour with a nice brown head. Aromas of chocolate and coffee. Bitter Black Patent malts gave it that classic porter flavor. More coffee too. Pretty good.

Black with brown to garnet highlights. Smell of chocolate and coffee from the malts. Sweet like flavor in the taste just not quite robust. Still pretty good.

nice deep black color on the pour with no head at all. smelled slightly of malts but mostly chocolate. great chocolate taste with roasted malts as well. kind of bitter at first but it smooths out on it’s way down.

Deep brown-red. Nose is quite roasty, has plenty of hops. Roasty flavor, some raisin character mixes with coffee-esque bitterness. Nicely drinkable, not watery but still was quite quaffable. Nice stuff.

Bottle. Pours a deep, amber-hued black with a pillowy tan head. The aroma is mostly chocolate with a touch of roasty malts. There is quite a bit of chocolate in the flavor, too, along with some fresh coffee and roasted malts. There is a finish of very earthy hops. A fine porter, this, though the palate is a bit thin and prickly.
