The Festive

About this beer

A decadent and generously hopped East India Porter from Turning Point Brew Co, created as a warming seasonal beer for winter drinking. The Festive is a 5.4% ABV dark ale that combines the rich, roasted malt character of a traditional porter with an expressive hop profile, offering a distinctive interpretation of this historic beer style. Chocolate notes provide an inviting richness, while roasted malt contributes depth and the familiar dark character associated with porter. The brewery describes the beer as well-hopped, with a gentle fruity finish that complements its chocolate and roasted malt flavours. This balance between malt richness and hop expression gives The Festive its distinctive personality, bringing together satisfying dark beer flavours without losing its approachable drinking character. Designed with the colder months in mind, the brewery recommends it for fireside winter drinking, where its combination of chocolate, roasted malt and subtle fruit character can be enjoyed at a relaxed pace. Brewed using barley, hops, yeast and water, The Festive is suitable for vegans and presented in a 440ml can. It offers a characterful seasonal alternative for drinkers who enjoy traditional porters with a more pronounced hop presence.
