Beer Review: Mehana Hawaiian Crow Porter

My son Thomas & daughter-in-law Shana, as the perfect hosts, made sure that there was plenty of locally brewed beer in the house while we were visiting this past week. I made sure that I took notes as i went along. The first one that I tried was from Mehana Brewing Company out of Hilo, on the "Big Island" of Hawaii. The Hawaiian Crow Porter was a medium heavy porter, very little hops evident, with chocolate overtones, heavy on toasted malt, with a little hint of coffee. It stacked up well against some of the other porters that I've tried over the past year. Yay!
