Deschutes Brewery Black Butte Porter 6pk 12oz cans

Deschutes Brewery's flagship beer and one of the releases that helped define the American craft beer movement, first brewed in 1988. Made with Cascade, Bravo, and Tettnang hops over a malt bill of pale, Carapils, chocolate, crystal, and wheat malts, it delivers a rich blend of dark chocolate and roasted malt, layered with toasted grain, bread crust, and toffee. Subtle fruity notes of cherry, apricot, and fig add complexity, while a light hop bitterness balances the richness and keeps the finish clean. Full flavored yet approachable at a moderate 5.2% ABV, this is a genuine benchmark for the American porter style and one of the most consistently well regarded year round releases in craft beer.
