Rum & Oak Infused with Salted Black Porter

     Here is an interesting twist on Salted Black Porter, a brew that is brewed with traditional Dutch dropsies, also known as salted black liquorice (licorice in America), offering flavors of coffee, liquorice, chocolate and caramel for a balanced malt profile and residual sweetness.    This beer pours out a deep near-black brown color with a foamy cream colored head that lasts a long time and leaves tidal lacing patterns. The nose has notes of sea salt, liquorice, anise, caramel malt, and molasses. The palate follows suite, but has the addition of dark chocolate a touch of coffee. The mouthfeel is medium-bodied, with moderate carbonation, and a bittersweet finish.
