About the beer

The Oitava Colina Robust Porter Zé Arnaldo presents itself as a dark ale, a style of London origin, marked by the harmony between sweet and roasted malts. Its creamy body and dense, brownish, persistent foam envelop subtle hop aromas, balanced by notes of bread, biscuit, chocolate, and caramel. On the palate, it reveals itself to be complex, with flavors of dried fruits, toffee, and a delicate roast, without any aggressiveness. The bitterness is moderate, the finish slightly dry, and the texture silky.

Food Pairing Suggestion
