Porter had served in the North Staffordshire Regiment in the First World War, earning his DSO with Bar before moving to Newcastle. Porter had refined the recipe for Newcastle Brown Ale alongside chemist Archie Jones over a period of three years.

Newcastle Brown Ale is perceived in the UK as a working-man's beer, with a long association with heavy industry, the traditional economic staple of the North East of England. [1] In export markets, it is seen as a trendy, premium import and is predominantly drunk by the young. [1] It was one of the first beers to be distributed in a clear glass bottle and is most readily associated with this form of dispense in the UK. In 2000, the beer was renamed "Newcastle Brown" with the "Ale" being removed from the front label. This change, only in the UK, was due to market research claiming that the term "ale" was outdated and costing the company sales in the youth drinking markets. The older name was reinstated with no fanfare in 2004, when it was realised that the change had made no difference to sales.

Newcastle Brown Ale is traditionally sold in Britain in 1-imperial-pint (568ml; 19USfloz) and, more recently, 550-millilitre (0.97imppt) bottles. Typically, the ale is consumed from a 12-imperial-fluid-ounce (340ml; 12USfloz) Wellington glass. [30] This allows the drinker to regularly top-up the beer and thereby maintain a frothy "head". In the United States, it is sold in 12-US-fluid-ounce (350ml) servings. In April 2010, Heineken USA introduced the Wellington glass, branded as the " Geordie Schooner," for Newcastle Brown Ale consumers in America. The glass features a nucleated base.
