What does today’s brew and a stack of flapjacks shouting “WAIT WAIT, let me explain!” have in common? Well, they’re both Defensive Pancakes. 

But the decadent Porter from Divine Barrel Brewing brings all the beloved breakfast flavors of a tall stack drizzled in syrup — and it’s a lot more fun to have around — so let’s focus on that one. 

The award-winning brewers at DBB doused their Porter base with huge doses of Madagascar vanilla and Vermont maple syrup to imbue it with decadent pancake flavor. Every creamy sip coats the palate with rich maple character, and its fluffy mouthfeel rivals that of the breakfast favorite. 

Save yourself the trouble of tussling with a plate of pancakes; this 6.8% ABV Porter was meant to be enjoyed with breakfast, lunch, dinner, and dessert. The only defense you’ll need to worry about is defending it from your jealous buddies who are sure to want a sip!
