398. Crow Peak Brewing Co. (Spearfish, SD) - Pile O’Dirt

“Pile O’Dirt Porter falls into the robust porter category. This is a medium-bodied beer with moderate hop bitterness and negligible hop aroma and flavor. Pile O’Dirt Porter is brewed with the finest quality pale ale malt with Munich, Extra Special, Blackprinz and Chocolate malts added for color and flavor adjustment. Perle and Willamette hops are added to balance the sweet maltiness of this porter.”

Strong flavors of cocoa and dark chocolate, with a surprisingly smooth finish. We never made it up to Spearfish, and I never made it back to the gas station where I got this one to pick up either of the other Crow Peak beers they had. Wish I had, because this one was solid.
