Porter casts a long shadow on ale history. Spanning back to the early 1700's, Porter literally hit its stride and walked hand in hand with many of the great developments of industry and power within the British empire.
Porter was the first mega-industrialized beer style brewed for the masses in a quickly developing imperialistic world and pioneering evolutions in brewing science can be traced back to this beer style. With rich roasty flavors and a dark brooding hue, the shadow of history is packed into each pint. Our prime directive is to faithfully and solemnly honor the deep historical significance of this wonderful beer style.

I probably wouldn't have picked this one up if it wasn't on clearance for $1. Roasted malts and chocolate notes in the aroma. Taste has roasted malts, chocolate and something else that I can't figure out. Either way, this is a very good porter. I didn't expect to like it, but I do. Glad I tried it. I'm pretty sure this brewery just closed, but if I come across another can, I'll pick it up. 3.75/5
