Beer God’s Notes

Original Tasting Notes: has a lot of flavor without being overly sweet. A good nose of hazelnut and chocolate. The finish is smooth and easy to drink.

As I said in my tasting notes, this was really easy drinking — smooth without being overly sweet.  A lot of times when you get chocolate and another sweet flavor in a beer they can be overwhelming — this was not the case with HC Porter.

I didn’t think I was a big hazelnut fan (I know, I feel like the only one), but I really liked the flavors in play in this beer.  Maybe I’ve been converted!
