"Withbread" English Porter 21L

Porter as a style did not exist for a long time, it was the cheapest beer in medieval England. It was practically a leftover beer, mainly consumed by the working class. Hence the name 'Porter'. In the 1800s it became more popular, so breweries began to brew porter specifically, and the style developed. By the 1950s, only a few breweries were making it, and the home brewing revolution revived the style. It's no coincidence. Compared to stout, it has a fuller body, a more estery character and a more chocolatey character.
