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.

Black body, not much head. Deep chocolate malt aroma with a classic porter tartness which seems to be a combination of lactic acid and some herbal hops. Very nice flavor, has more of that "deep" chocolate malt and pronounced tart grassy hops. A great porter!

this was a nice dark brown brew. It was just your basic porter with maybe a bit more chocolate. Very smooth, i dug it.

Bottle: Dark brown pour with a small tan head. Thick lacing. Nose of heavy roast, coffee, and chocolate. Taste is packed with lots of heavy roasted malt, dark chocolate, and coffee. A little hop bitters and roast in the tail. Creamy and smooth.

A dark beer with a reddish hue and a small, tan head. Aroma of lightly burned malt and aroma hops. Full, cream-like body with lots of hard roasted malt. Quite nutty throughout. Lightly soapy edge before a drier end.

Bottle. Pour is dark brown with a medium sized speckled tan head. Aroma is earthiness and roast / cocoa. Taste has a nice roasted maltiness too it, with some of cocoa poking through also. Body and finish are a bit quick and thin.

Pours with a four-finger tan head that fades slowly leaving a clumpy lace. Black - totally opaque. Good carbonation, heavy bodied not thin as rated in Sep2003. I think it is fresher this time. Nose is a smokey roasted coffee. Starts with a roasted sweetness and finishes like a roasted coffee. $1.29 for a 12oz bottle from the Liquor Barn, Lexington, KY.
