Gingerbread Porter-Hardywood Park Craft Brewery
Local for a couple or three Ymm, Beer posters
Credit-accfanfrom1970, please step forward and take a well deserved bow; many thanks for your beer mule-ry!!
Style-flavored imperial porter; yes, a non-stout in the 2019 GBS Complete Set
Format-pint can; another first in the 2019 GBS Complete Set
Stemware-that cute little tumbler from the 2018 Complete Set worked quite nicely with this
Appearance-dark brown with a medium tan, foamy head
Scents-ginger (not Mary Ann)
Mouthfeel-smooooooth with a zing
Tastes-prominent but not unpleasant ginger, dark honey, milk chocolate (not added) and "special GBS spices" that I can't identify
Adjuncts-ginger (d'oh!), honey, "spices," but no lactose like the GBS
IBU-probably 40
ABV-the usual 9.2%
Overall impression-a very nice change/addition/replacement in the set
Ymm, Beer rating-low cat 3; would be happy to see again in the 2020 Complete Set if accfanfrom1970 will be our "beast of burden"
