English-Style Brown Porter
This style is noted for its low to medium malt sweetness with caramel and chocolate character. Hop bitterness ranges from low to medium with softer and sweeter malt notes than robust porters. The body is lighter as the alcohol for this style is not as high as other porters. Pair with roasted or grilled meats, gruyere, and chocolate peanut butter cookies. Best served at 50-55 degrees in a nonic pint.
