A Chocolate Porter at 5.2% by Northern Monk. This beer has a smooth, creamy, and rich taste due to the use of chocolate, caramel, and biscuits. The porter style of beer is known for its dark colour and rich, malt-forward flavour profile.
The chocolate and caramel notes come through exactly as described, giving it a dessert-like richness without being too heavy. I poured it for friends after dinner and the biscuit finish kept everyone reaching for another glass.
That dark pour alone is worth it, and the caramel and chocolate balance the roast so well without getting heavy. It drinks way smoother than 5.2%, almost like a dessert you can sip. I'd grab another four-pack for sure.
The biscuit malt really comes through on the finish, giving it a cozy, almost dessert-like feel without being heavy. Poured it for dessert after a long week and the creamy body made it dangerously easy to sip.
