A porter is an acquired taste, I tend to think of them as watery stouts.
Anyway, a repeated entry which also happened to be the lowest rated entry as well so both @Russinating & @Sonea Fifer get the bonus point. I had to make sure it was the correct beer as Meantime do their own version which is rated at 3.37 and 0.1% stronger


Next round: Q – Queen - Queen in the name or image on the label (21st August)

Bonus Points - 2pts for Strongest ABV

Not had mine yet, its supposedly minty so it could go either way.

I actually quite enjoyed mine and I didn’t think I liked porters much. Nice that it was quite light.

Also, it was fabulous to be back sitting at a bar in a pub!

I had a Buxton Costa Rican Coffee Porter as a backup which similar to yours was nice and light.

Then was in a pub on Friday and saw another one and figured I’d get it to be safe in case I forgot to enter my actual one!

@Bickaxe thought I’d sent in a my P entry? Was it invalid or just missed - I sent it ages ago when first sorting out beers for the comp as Porter was an easy one.

e: quick check and I sent it back in April

Sorry, completely missed it as in amongst all my entries. Will update now.

Thanks - my entry (so far) for next week is very tenuous so want points where I can get them

This was my entry. I'm several weeks behind in terms of tasting what I've purchased but this one sounded sexual so I opened it last night.
Alas, it went down the sink. A very acquired taste indeed.

Ffs @Sonea Fifer what are the chances. Back of the cupboard?

Is this a porter?

 

[Martynt74]

This was mine. Was actually fairly nice. Porters are the kind of beer i would usually avoid but then enjoy on the rare times i have them.

 

[Martynt74]

Is this a porter?

The website suggests so. A "white" porter which i never knew was a thing!

 

[Bickaxe]

Is this a porter?

Untappd says it is as well and thats what I go by.
I had not heard of a white porter either but if white stout exists then someone was going to do one eventually.

 

[Sonea Fifer]

Yeah - my first bonus point of the competition - also my first duplicate



And once again it's still on my beer shelf in the cupboard.

I'll get round to drinking these eventually

Ffs @Sonea Fifer what are the chances. Back of the cupboard?

Hahaha nope, I purchased mine only a month or so go while on a foodshop I wandered into their beer selection and was suitably impressed.

 

[MikeTheNative]

I couldn't get to a beer shop so got the only porter they had. Still not had it yet though.
