barney_rebel Posted August 16, 2005 Share Posted August 16, 2005 Who likes them? I'm having a Mill st. Coffee Porter right now. Nice dark, roasted coffee taste (yes it has coffee in it). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bardan Posted August 16, 2005 Share Posted August 16, 2005 I love porters! That Mill St. Coffee Porter sounds pretty tasty Barney, I don't believe I've seen it before. Great Lakes Edmund Fitzgerald Porter is one of my favorites, especially on tap. Of course I've always loved Sam Smith's Taddy Porters. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bardan Posted September 1, 2005 Share Posted September 1, 2005 I'm guessing that's a Stone Smoked Porter in your fridge davey? Good stuff indeed! Yep, I'm still working at the bar but the girl situations there haven't been much to talk about lately. I've given up on the ones I work with....well, except for two. Anyway, that's another topic. I'm still hoping to try one of those Mill St. Coffee Porters someday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

1-0-0-1-0-0-1 Posted September 23, 2005 Share Posted September 23, 2005 Tonight with dinner, it was my first taste of Flying Dog's "Road Dog" Scottish Porter. Poured a nice dark reddish brown, and had a pleasant taste...but it was a little on the weak side. A little thin and watery tasting, but certainly not bad. I'm not sure I'd pick up another six, but a single bottle (like this time) once in a while seems do-able. The best thing about this porter is the label: http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v318/1001001/Beer/206.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v318/1001001/Beer/bottle-roaddog-label.jpg "Good Beer, No Shit" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dread Pirate Robert Posted July 15, 2006 Share Posted July 15, 2006 Porters are good. One of my favorite types of beer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
third hand grace Posted July 31, 2006 Share Posted July 31, 2006 I have no clue if it is true, or where they can be had, but I have been buying a porter called Original Flag Porter Supposedly the yeast used was found in a shipwreck from along time ago in the English Channel I believe. Wish I had the bottle in front of me so I could get my facts right. I like it a lot, individual bottles selling for just under 3 bucks. If you see it try it. Anyone see it before??

tangy Posted August 1, 2006 Share Posted August 1, 2006 Porters are a tried & true favorite style of mine. But then again the only styles I do not like are Heffeweizen or most other wheat beers ( Pyramid being the exception) and Scottish Ales, not a fan of the scoth taste. I've had several smoked beers and they are good if done correctly. I've gone to the Great American Beer Festival in Denver twice and tried the strangest of the strange and the tangiest of the tang. What a super pickler that event is. Unlimited samplings, the last time I went there was around a 1000 to try. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
anagramking Posted October 7, 2007 Share Posted October 7, 2007 Anyone try this brand before? Not bad.... http://www.courierpostonline.com/blogs/uploaded_images/lates1-761292.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theanalogkid Posted October 9, 2007 Share Posted October 9, 2007 Locally, Odell Brewing makes Cutthroat Porter. Slightly smokey with chocolate undertones, it makes for a great porter. It is even better when the Crown Pub (Fort Collins, CO) puts it on tap fed with nitro. Hmm... someone is getting thirsty. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ILSnwdog Posted October 9, 2007 Share Posted October 9, 2007 Anchor Porter is my favorite. It's from the same brewery that makes Anchor Steam. Both are awesome beers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
anagramking Posted October 24, 2007 Share Posted October 24, 2007 http://www.ratebeer.com/beerimages/full_size/303.jpg I tried this one last night. I think I'm going to have to try a few others. I liked this one as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dread Pirate Robert Posted February 3, 2008 Share Posted February 3, 2008 Trying a new porter (new to me) right now: Butte Creek Organic Porter. It is quite good. Smoother than most porters, without so much aftertaste. The guy who sold me this stuff told me that the Butte Creek company was started by the guy who used to be the brewmaster for Sierra Nevada, but then went out on his own to start his own company. For whatever that is worth. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
