Thirsty Dog Old Leghumper

Don’t let a somewhat goofy name like Old Leghumper fool you, Thirsty Dog’s Robust Porter means business!

Very nice black pour accented with a creamy beige head. The aroma promises deep, roasted goodness. And not just roasted, but a bit of char here. Loads of coffee, even a hint of marshmallow. Some bittersweet chocolate, as expected, but the toasted malt and coffee dominate. It’s nice that a beer branded as a robust porter is more aggressive than other porters.

Overall, familiar porter flavors, just a bit more kick. A lot to like here.
