Samuel Smith’s Taddy Porter transforms the traditional Welsh Rarebit, creating a very tasty and full bodied dish. Our Taddy Porter is a very dark beer, made with malted barley, cane sugar, roasted malt, yeast and hops and brewed using well water from our 1758 well and fermented in stone Yorkshire squares. It’s fairly full in body and packed with flavour with the intense, dry tangy character of roasted barley.

- 240ml /8 1/2oz Taddy Porter

Method
- Preheat the grill. In a small saucepan, boil the stout over high heat until reduced to about 1/2 original amount, about 4 minutes.
