Salcombe Brewery Co. is celebrating a double win for its Island Street Porter at the 2023 World Beer Awards. Not only did it win a gold in the porter category, but it was crowned overall ‘Country Winner’ too, meaning that they judged it to be the best porter in the country.
Jordan Mace, Salcombe Brewery’s Managing Director, comments: “We are thrilled with these new accolades for Island Street Porter, which has already won a Gold Award from SIBA and a Champion Beer Award from Taste of the West. Its burgeoning trophy cabinet is testament to the brew team’s hard work, creativity and focus on quality. Not only have they created a beer that has beaten off competition from across the globe to achieve a gold award but, it has also been recognised as the best of its kind in the country.”
Island Street Porter (ABV 5.9%) is a carefully crafted, velvety, delicately bitter porter with just a hint of sweetness. Eight different malts combine to suggest dark chocolate, coffee and black cherry, while the aroma pleasingly suggests Black Forest gateau.
