THX-1138 Posted July 10 Report Share Posted July 10 I love stout and porter beers, this one I'd like to share is by Guinness - West Indies Porter. It's based on a brewer's spec from the early 1800's, the idea was to brew a beer that could survive the long sea journey to the Caribbean and Americas from Ireland. I think it's around 6% (without getting up and checking) and like all good stouts and porters has chocolatey/toffeeish hints. Naturally it goes well with chocolate - and Atari games. Availability: UK/Ireland - not sure if it's available in the US. There is also a blue label porter, haven't seen them for sale in a while, but if I find one I'll post that too.

RickR Posted July 10 Report Share Posted July 10 Yes it is available in the US (at least here in Portland). I agree it is great. And I like the Tony's chocolate too. THX-1138 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
THX-1138 Posted July 10 Author Report Share Posted July 10 I think that was a regular Guinness I had with that chocolate, but it makes the point. 😀 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
