From the mountains of North Carolina comes High Country Legend Porter, a
6% alcohol dark ale from the brewing dynamos at Appalachian Mountain Brewery out of Boone. The beer, sold in 355mL cans, is an amber
highlighted dark brown ale, pouring with a thin layer of cream head.
HCLP
has a hefty malty aroma with a rich mocha feel. The flavour is
malt-oriented, with coffee and chocolate notes up front, and a
pleasantly robust hops finish.
This Boone brew
is flavourful and rich, with agreeable malt oomph and a decently bitter
back end. Strength-wise, it’s adequate. All told, a fine, serviceable
porter.
Rating: 8.0 out of 10.
