THIRD STATE CHOCOLATE PORTER

Origins

Once known as Raining Chocolate, this rich, cocoa-forward beer was a standout in Third State’s dark beer lineup. Now reborn under the Third State Series, it continues to deliver dessert-like complexity with every pour. Our Third State Chocolate Porter is layered with notes of dark chocolate and roasted malt, this smooth porter is a comforting companion for cool nights and sweet cravings.

​

Third State Chocolate Porter is a textbook take on the English classic—dark and full-bodied, but smoother and less bitter than a stout. Specialty malts and natural cocoa bring out layers of chocolate, coffee, and toasted bread. It’s indulgent without being cloying, and rich without feeling heavy.
