Atlantic Coal Porter
Atlantic Brewing Company
Bar Harbor & Portland, ME

"I think of you night and day. Day and night, why is it so, that this longing for you follows wherever I go?" so wrote the famous songwriter with the same cognomen(though spelled different). Yes, this brew almost makes you sing. Well, maybe after a few you'd be singing a Mozart libretto in wild jubilee. But this isn't much of an actual singing porter now is it. It's more of spiritual singing. Harps and haloes and angels chorusing above your head in a raucous cloud of ecstasy. Anyhow, back to the anecdotes: the real Cole Porter in his latter years was continuously "breaking appliances so he could lure cute repairmen into his lair"(source: wikipedia.com). Me, I'm just trying to beat back the slutty Budweiser girls from my/your head. Damn perverts and their beerstuff. Yeah, that's the mantra here: another bad play on word double-entendre sort of entry. Which is too bad really because this is a fine porter. On par with my beloved P. P. (sorry, Pontiac Porter). There's nothing like a deep roasted coffee choco (maybe I should just say Chofee for now on and maybe I should stop parenthesizing everything) beer in 75% humidity with the threat of thunderstorms. But this is a fine fine lava java that coupled with a Dogfish Head Inidan Brown Ale has me very tipsy. OK, I'm lit but this beer is centrifugally sound and yummy. Drink it.
