The Gothic Prince Of Darkness Black Currant Porter

Disclaimer. This sinister beer should only be drunk in a gloomy mood. Dressed in black from head to toe and listening to Joy Division Love. This is a serious beer for serious people. Be warned, though, the interplay of blackcurrant and chocolate, with a bit of vanilla and oak chips, that our lucky brewer used may unexpectedly lift you out of that void of existential pain you so enjoyed. And then you suddenly feel good. That's really not good.

Style description: What exactly is a Porter?

Porter has its origins in England and is named after the porters who carried goods from the cargo ships to the warehouses in the ports. In the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries, the water quality was poor and people drank beer to quench their thirst. So in this case they drank the dark porters that the English breweries brewed. These beers also had a bit more calories than the Pale Ale and therefore also gave these hard workers energy.
