Stouts and Porters – Don’t miss this incredible craft beer line-up of 10 stouts and porters on 2/11! Special Imperial Stout Flight.
A stout is a beer of dark color due to the use of roasted malt in the brewing process. The stout style actually grew from it’s predecessor: the porter. The porter was a popular dark beer in the 1700’s preferred by Porters, the guys who carried peoples bags in England. Eventually a stronger version of this style was developed and called a “stout” porter. Today, more diversity within this style can be seen including Baltic porter, dry stout, milk stout and imperial (high alcohol) stout. In addition, various ingredients can be added to make everything from a vanilla porter to a blueberry stout. Join us!
