Description:

This robust porter pushes gluten-free brewing to its darkest, richest edge. Built on a layered blend of millet and rice malts, it delivers a full-bodied mouthfeel with excellent head retention and deep malt character. Expect smooth notes of chocolate, toasted grain, and mild caramel sweetness wrapped in a dark, near-black pour. Designed as an all-grain recipe, this gluten-free porter proves that classic, malt-forward styles can be brewed at home with depth and balance.
