Northern Monk – Culinary Adventures Yorkshire Parkin Porter

Northern Monk Brewery Culinary Adventures Yorkshire Parkin Porter

THE BREWERY SAYS:

Taking a trip to the northern Yorkshire dales for a distinctly Yorkshire winter warmer; parkin. A traditional ginger cake full of rich oatmeal, molasses, and warming spices that makes it the perfect candidate for recreating in dark beer form.

Browner malts like Special B and Munich give this beer a rich brown colour and caramel & dark-fruit notes rather than the dark chocolate and coffee bittersweetness of darker porters, while Rye and Oats recreate the chewy, sticky, mouth-coating texture of Yorkshire Parkin.

Finally, Parkin’s lingering impression is one of earthy heat from stem ginger which we added towards the end of the brew, along with a touch of vanilla flavour to recreate a generous drizzle of custard and make this a proper pud.
