Driftwood

Blackstone Porter

This London-style porter is distinguished by a bittersweet chocolate character derived from the delicate balance of a traditional sour mash and a blend of select black and chocolate malts.

This beer has just enough dark malt to be black. This Porter leans toward the dry side in its malt profile. The addition of a partial sour mash lends a subtle tartness to the bittersweet chocolate flavour that dominates.

Food Pairings:

•Oysters, smoked foods, barbecue.

•Mushrooms, onions, rosemary, thyme.

•Cheeses such as Stilton, Caerphilly or aged Cheddar

•Chocolate, pecans.

Driftwood can be found in Victoria on Hillside Ave.
