Midnight
Porter is a blend of Old World style and New World flavor.
This beer is based on the traditional English style
that was designed to be lighter than a stout and more
drinkable at any time of day. It was popular among the
laborers of the early 1800s and derives its name from
this group of people. It is a luscious, deep ruby red
beer with a dry, smooth body. Midnight Porter is brewed
with all-American ingredients. Caramel malts give this
ale body and Black patent and chocolate malts provide
its rich, chocolate-like flavor and ruby hue. This beer
is darker and has a more roasted flavor than the Boathouse
Brown, yet it is not as full bodied, or quite as bitter,
as the Lake Trout Stout. This porter is mild in both
hop flavor and aroma. Midnight Porter is great with
heavier fare, grilled entrees and chocolate.
