Upstream Release Party (River Boat Porter)

From their email...

When: Wed, Jan 12 from 5:00 to 6:00 p.m.
Where: Upstream Legacy, 17070 Wright Plaza, Omaha

This hearty, dark chocolate colored ale is brewed to evoke the dark, full-bodied ales that were a favorite of dockworkers and warehousemen (hence the name "Porter") in 19th century London. It is a good bet that when Dickens' Mr. Pickwick sat down for a pint, he would have been drinking an ale much like our Robust Porter. This is a smooth and very drinkable beer, characterized by its well-balanced malt and hops, plus subtle notes of coffee and chocolate.
