Old Leghumper by Thirsty Dog Brewing Company
Beer #67 is Old Leghumper by Thirsty Dog Brewing Company. Thirsty Dog comes to me from Ohio. Old Leghumper, as soon as I saw the label I knew I had to get it. This brew is an American Porter with an ABV of 6.7%.
There was no head (darn) whatsoever as this dark brown, almost black liquid, was poured into the glass. I dipped my nose into the glass and got something like chocolate milk or a milk chocolate bar and not much of anything else. I took a sip, there was a bit of roasted malts, some chocolate, and a bit of coffee. It finished with a slight burnt flavor. There was an aftertaste that reminded me of some sort of chocolate candy I have had before, maybe Necco Chocolate Wafers? It was light and thin in the mouth with little in the way of carbonation. It was quite drinkable but I didn’t really want another.
The best thing about this beer was the label, Old Leghumper…So many legs…So little time.
