I believe you are referring to "porter." This is a style of beer made popular in the 1800s in England. The name "porter" is a reference to the dock and transit workers with whom it was most popular. It is a dark brew in color, although more medium-bodied on the palate. Expect to taste flavors of cocoa, coffee, wood, smoke, roasty notes, toffee, and perhaps even vanilla, among others. These beers are also generally low in alcohol, unless you come across an Imperial Porter from one of the US's many amazing craft breweries. One of the original porters was brewed by Guinness. Furthermore, the Guinness Stout we know today was actually once referred to as "Stout Porter," when the term "stout" was used as a descriptor for a more robust-tasting beer. "Port," on the other hand, is a type of wine, originating in Portugal...
