The Vermont Maple Porter is a rich, malt-forward porter with layers of caramel, chocolate, and coffee flavor. Real Vermont maple syrup adds subtle sweetness and depth, enhancing the malt profile without overpowering it.

Northern Brewer hops contribute mild woody bitterness, balancing the beer and allowing the maple character to come through smoothly on the finish.

  • Vermont maple syrup
  • Northern Brewer hops (bittering and flavor)
  • Specialty steeping grains including caramel, chocolate, and black malts

  • Grain steeping bag
  • Sanitizer packet

Note: Brewing equipment is not included. This kit is designed for brewers who already own a 1-gallon brewing setup.

Brewing your Vermont Maple Porter allows time for rich flavor development:

  • Brew: Steep specialty grains, boil the wort, and add hops
  • Ferment: Ferment the base porter until clean and stable
  • Maple Addition: Add maple syrup during fermentation as instructed
