Bridgeport Porter
Hops-scotch and his betrothed joined us last weekend for some fun and frivolity so of course Frosty and I would be totally remiss if we didn’t start their Portland experience with some great beer! We decided to take them to the Bridgeport brewery downtown for some lunch vittles and of course some awesome beer. Hops-scotch ordered their Black Strap Stout while his wife-to-be and Frosty ordered Haymakers. I went for their porter.
Lets just say… I’ve fallen in love with porters and Bridgeport’s is no exception. The smoky smooth taste made for a flavorful, yet easy to drink beer. I honestly can’t think of anything that wouldn’t taste good with a porter. I’d even drink a porter with chocolate cake! (Ohh… that sounds so good….) Ok… maybe I should change my name to “PorterSlut.”
Whew, that’s over. You know what isn’t awesome? Getting a sore throat for a few days, then a chest infection that makes you cough like a madman, then a cold, and finally having your allergies kick in. No scenario says “beer? no f’ing way” like that one. I did however become quite the tea conessoiur lately. Maybe I should call this Steamy Goodness. Hey that’s trademarked now.
