The brewery: " Emerson’s Brewery was founded by Richard Emerson in 1992. A Dunedin
institution offering a vibrant atmosphere and outdoor beer garden,
matched with delicious craft beer and a menu that caters for all tastes."
The beer: " Porter is the oldest commercially brewed style and London Porter was Emerson’s first beer. Dark, dry and mellow with some hoppy characteristics, pours a deep brown colour with reddish tints. The aroma is toasty, with a hint of sweetness and some earthy hop notes. Firm-bodied but not heavy, with a creamy texture, the dryish palate is full of roasted malt, coffeeish notes and a sustained bitterness."
