The Kernel x Neal’s Yard | Running Porter

Description

• Style: London Porter
• Region: Bermondsey
• ABV: 5.6%
• Bottle Size: 500ml

We wanted this to be a little lighter and fresher than the other porter recipes we brew, to acknowledge its ‘running’ nature, and to pair better with the territorial cheeses that inspired this collaboration. This beer leans into light cocoa, almost cola aromatics, with the herbal fruity hedgerow of Goldings and Bramling Cross. The body is refreshing, a touch of warmth, a touch of roast, a touch of tea-like tannins. It moves through a red-berry phase into a hazelnut / praline roundness, then a clean dry finish.

At The Kernel we have a longstanding friendship with Neal’s Yard Dairy, we share a love for food and drink rooted in tradition, a respect for place and process, and a curiosity about how heritage products can remain relevant, and delicious, in the modern world.
