Opa-Opa Steakhouse Southampton Porter

Brewed by Opa-Opa Steakhouse and Brewery
Style: Porter
Southampton, Massachusetts USA

My Bottom Line:
Candied fruitiness and calculated earthy roastiness linger well into the finish in this clean and drinkable Porter.

Further Personal Perceptions:
-A veil of foam stands atop the burgundy-laced black.
-The maltiness is well extracted, as in most Opa-Opa beers.
-Some coffee flavors add complexity to the roasted maltiness.
-The fruitiness recalls cherries at times.
-This is not a memorable Porter by any means, but it is quite efficient nonetheless.

On tap at the brewpub.

Pours a black color with brown highlights and a thin beige head. Average aroma and flavor of coacoa and roasted malt. The body is light while the carbonation is soft. Even for a porter, it lacks intensity.

This beer ours dark bworn with a decent head. It has good notes of cocoa and coffee. I would think it is a stout. IUt finishes quite smooth!

A really winner, at the brewpub. Black, good lace. Nice chocolate. Smooth and stoutish. good balance, and a bit more bitter than sweet.

Robe noire claire surmontée d’une mince mousse beige crémeuse. Arômes de caramel. Saveurs de caramel, de torréfié et de céréales.

on tap-pours a creamy tan head and mahogany color. Aroma is dark malt-licorice/chocolate, roasty. Taste is dark malt-licorice/chocolate, roasty, secondary hops bite. OK carbonation.

sampled at the brewpub. dark brown in color. Aroma is chocolate, some dark fruit and herbal hops. Taste comprises what is in the aroma with light roast notes and some light bitterness in the finish. an ok porter.

Pretty normal porter. A little thin for my likes and a bit too much molasses for my taste. Good dark brown color and nicely long lasting white head.
