Lemon Ginger Wit - Spice/Herb/Vegetable:
Satan's Porter (Maple Porter) - Specialty:We like how the lemon and ginger has been integrated into this brew, and they seem like a great choice for a wit. Base beer is obviously of quality. Nice tartness from the lemon and some heat from the ginger. Would perhaps go with more ginger next time. A good beer in a very tough category.
So, maybe next time I enter the easy categories. Which ones are those again?Huge kudos on making your own maple syrup for this one. Bang on appearance for the robust porter style. Good maple sweetness in the nose. Light roast underneath. Sweet, smoky flavour with a good maple character. Pairs perfectly with the roast. Obviously a good porter base in this one. Very drinkable with no obvious flaws. Ticks all the right boxes, but had very tough competition in this category.
