Atlantic Brewing Co. Bar Harbor Real Ale

Bar Harbor Real Ale: 3.5 – It is a first an otherwise unremarkable brown ale. The only thing that sets it apart is what they call ‘hints of caramel’ which is code for – we burn some sugar when we make this, but keep going. It’s kind of like a sauce that has burned to the pan – as long as you don’t eat the burnt part it’s still ‘fine’, but not at the same time.

Atlantic Brewing Co. Coal Porter

Coal Porter: 4.0 – So I’m beginning to wonder if they literally threw coal into the batch. Because going down this tastes like a nice standard porter, but that lingering aftertaste might as well be coal dust, like It’s almost eerie how akin to coal it is. It’s not exactly a bad porter overall unless you are a serious anti-charcoal fan.
