Review - Cambridge Brewing Company's Charles River Porter
"Deep and dark, full-bodied and robust, our Porter is crammed full of rich, roasted malt character. With underlying notes of fruitness, caramel and toffee, it finishes with a strong hop presence." -- Cambridge Brewing Company
Dark brown body with a light-brown, creamy head. Fair lacing. Fully diminishing. Murky body. Aroma is of whole bean, dark roasted coffee with hints of bakers chocolate. Initial taste touches on sweet, but shifts to a bitter finish, moderately strong, with an average duration. Light to medium on the mouth, it has a texture between watery and creamy, with soft carbonation.
Smoky taste, very drinkable.
