Stouts & Porters

  • Black Dog Porter Image 1

    Black Dog is not only the name of our flavourful, unfiltered Irish style porter, but also refers to our trusted protector – Zach. He’s in charge of security related matters around the brewery. So when he’s not sleeping with one eye open, he’s known to brave his day-to-day duties while puffing away on a pipe.

  • Empowered Stout Image 1

    Empowered Stout is a complex full bodied English sweet stout. This beer gets its malty complexity and colour from a combination of five different malts and two hop varieties. Coffee, dark chocolate, dried fruit, raisins and liquorice in the aroma with detectable sweetness balanced by the bitterness derived from the hops and roasted malts. This beer is best enjoyed at around 11°C and pairs well with meat dishes or dark chocolate.

  • The Vampire Porter Image 1

    The Vampire Porter - The Vampire is a smooth and warming, pitch black take on a porter, enticing even the non-porter drinker to have a pint. Strong flavours of coffee and chocolate makes this rich and pleasurable.

  • Winter-Is-Coming Stout Image 1

    Our winter warmer! Dark as the night, this beer is based on the American Stout style, but enriched by the addition of South African hops. It’s got a massive malt bill to get this beautiful dark colour, accompanied by coffee and chocolate aromas. This beer is not as heavy and strong as the traditional stouts available, leaning more towards the easy-drinking side.
