Starry Night Chocolate Porter

From beautiful, peaceful Bobcaygeon, Ontario, comes Starry Night Chocolate Porter. Lovingly brewed with lactose and cacao nibs by the folks at the Bobcaygeon Brewing Company, this potent ale packs 6.3% into each 473mL can.

This dark ale has a lovely deep brown hue and pours with a lush, but short-lived tan head. It has a malt-heavy, bitter chocolate aroma. The flavour is, at least initially, less robust. There is a silky mouthfeel that exudes sweet, chocolatey warmth. This gives way to a bitter, almost slightly sour finish. 

 

A pleasant dessert beer with good, but not impressive, strength, Starry Night is a pretty good chocolate stout. It’s not as deep or impressive of some of the genre’s finest offerings, but it’s a pretty solid little offering out of small town Ontario. A fun beer!
