Every March we dedicate a day to one of the most underrated styles in craft beer. Rich, roasty, layered, and full of character, the porter deserves its moment in the spotlight. That moment is Porter Palooza.
On Saturday, March 14, River North Brewery will tap a lineup of 10+ porters that show just how versatile this style can be, from classic chocolatey roast to deeper, more complex variations. It’s always one of our favorite days of the year.
Porter Palooza takes place Saturday, March 14 at both River North taprooms in Denver.
We will be pouring multiple porter variations throughout the event, including several limited releases brewed specifically for the day. Some beers will be available in small quantities, so if there is something you are excited about we recommend coming early.
Blog Exclusive Beer Drop
And since you are reading the blog, you are hearing this first.
Two of the porters dropping that day will be available on tap and in bottles:
• Hello Darkness XO
• Espresso Hello Darkness

Food at Porter Palooza

Your River North Crew
