That's right. You read the title correctly. Bobo's Robust Porter, Limited Release from Big Sky Brewing, has made it's way to Des Moines, Iowa. Take that Ft. Collins! I spied it today as I was picking up groceries to make a chicken stew... thing. I'm pretty sure I yelped in surprise and scared the old dude next to me when I saw it.
This beer pours thick and develops a deep tan head. At first sip you get the feeling that it might just be trying to fool you. There are hops in this dark little bugger. But, that melts into a creamy deluge of chocolate, vanilla and a hint of caramel. Honestly, it left me a little stunned. This is easily one of the best porters I've ever had. It's not overly sweet, with enough bitter to counter the mingling of creamy goodness.
Sadly, this is another limited release, so hurry up and get some already!
