View Full Version : porters
Clogston29 08-25-2011, 07:40 PM Favorite porters? Joining ipa as my cofavorite lately. Had the stone smoked porter recently and it was very very good. Also beerworks India pale porter. Fullers London porter is a solid to very good standard. Working my way through some different ones and looking for opinions. Founders and dark horse reserve are supposed to be great but I've never seen them. Probably will go anchor next.
blondterror 08-25-2011, 08:59 PM Otter Creek Stove Pipe Porter is one of my favorites.. esp since I went to college in Burlington, VT (UVM) not far from Middlebury where my wife went... Otter Creek brews in Middlebury
I have yet to find a better one than Mayflower's offering.

Wachusett Black Shack Porter is one of my favorites, if you get the chance to have it at the brewery, its a must!!!!
The Dad Fisherman 08-26-2011, 01:54 PM Give this one a try....very good and the hint of vanilla works good in a porter.
Breckenridge Vanilla Porter, Vanilla Beer - A Nutty Herb and Spice Beer Flavored With Real Vanilla Beans and Chocolate (http://breckbrew.com/beer/vanillaporter.html)
Luds, Mayflower's porter is excellent...I've liked all the Mayflower offerings....except the Summer Rye...wasn't to thrilled w/ that one
rphud 08-28-2011, 08:39 AM Brown's Whiskey Porter (on tap in beautiful downtown Troy NY), but a bunch of other Bourbon barreled Porters are just fine by me too.

Beautiful downtown Troy?? That's an oxymoron :D. It's more like a lite version of the Bronx.

Good call. Was working near the brewery last week. Had some there and got a six pack. Never been impressed with wachusett but the porter is good. Imperial ipa pretty good too. Rest of there offerings aren't for me. There ryder is terrible imo.

Was it too delicious for you?
american spirit 12-19-2011, 08:42 PM i just poured some samuel smith. not that good. i also bought this one bottle for 5 bucks. some german one kreich.... something. extreme boozy.
been looking for fullers but haven't had luck finding in pinehurst or burlington.
Clogston29 12-20-2011, 07:05 AM they have fullers, and a really good beer selection in general, at lincoln liquors in treble cove plaza if your up that way.
i was disappointed by the sam smith also. had it on tap at bbc and didn't care for it at all, really did not even want to finish it.
LeftHand's porter is very good

Correction. Drinking the Firestone now and it's not an imperial. It is really good though, a great mouth feel, viscous but not overly so. A lot of chocolate.
