Pothole Porter

If you're a motorist in Winnipeg right now, you'll likely be weaving around a plethora of potholes.

But if you're a beer lover, this also marks the time of year that Half Pints Brewing releases one of their finest seasonal selections, the aptly named Pothole Porter.

There is a strong scent of roasted coffee and dark chocolate. For someone more inclined to the taste of a hoppier beer, I find Pothole to have a particularly smooth and malty taste. 

The description of the beer on the label is "stare into the abyss" and this metaphorically describes its jet black colour. It’s like black liquid silk.

Pothole can be purchased at select MLCC locations. I also tried it at the Yellow Dog Tavern last week and it tasted even better on tap.

Well worth seeking out.
