A Note on This Beer

What would make the five-time GABF medal-winning, Black Butte Porter even MORE delectable? How about adding a boatload of real, fresh raspberry purée!

That’s exactly what the brewing masters at Deschutes did with this variant of their famous Porter. It tastes like a piece of dark chocolate torte smothered with a luxurious layer of jammy raspberries! 

Needless to say, Raspberry Black Butte Porter might take the literal cake for Black Butte spin-offs.

Deschutes crafted this confection by first adding flaked oats to their original brown Porter base. The oats boost the beer to all new, silky-soft heights, and create a balancing backdrop to the rush of real raspberry flavor. Every sip teeters between delicious notes of bold chocolate malts and vivid, sun-ripened fruitiness. 

It’s downright decadent and rich — a dessert in and of itself! And, it’s an absolute must-try for all of us OG craft fans whom, 26 years later, STILL can’t get enough of the iconic original!

Deschutes won 3 medals and crowned the Grand National Champs of the 2020 Open Beer Championship. They also boast an astounding 43 GABF medals!

Smooth taste with no after bitterness. And you can savor the hint of raspberry.

Something about the raspberry flavor just doesn’t mesh well. Tastes artificial.

Not loving this. Raspberry flavor is a lit artificial tasting (even though I know it’s not) and it doesn’t mix super well with the coffee and chocolate notes of the porter that are very present ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Roasty and fruity without being too heavy or in your face with raspberry. The fruit flavor of this porter tells me I don’t need to wait until fall or winter to enjoy a porter. A breezy summer night works just fine with this one.

Finally drank this. Very sour, tart, dry, and medicinal. Possibly better a little fresher.

LOVE Black Butte…. LOVE this raspberry Porter. Deschutes is one of my favorite breweries, but this is a great addition to their Porter line up. if you’re a fan of both raspberries and dark beers, drink this!
