Anchor Porter

Very deep and dark reddish brown beer with scant beige head, leaves nice lacing though. Sweet, roasted malts, liqorice and nice hoppiness in aroma. Roasted malts, chokolate in flavor. A bit grassy also. Aftertaste is quite bitter. Palate is oily, medium-bodied and low carbonated.

Bottle. Brown-black with large mocha head. Sweet, roasted aroma. More like sweet coffee. Caramel. Medium body. Slightly roasted after taste. Very nice porter but maybe a bit too sweet..

Black/brown color with a pale brown head. Roasted and sweet aroma with notes of coffee, dark fruits, chocolate, caramel and light citrus. Taste of roasted/lightly burned malt, dark fruit, licorice, coffee, chocolate, raisins and a bit of citrus. Medium bodied and smooth.

Pours dark brown with light brown head. Aromas of roasted malts and chocolate. Sweet roasted malt flavor. Full body with minimal carbonation and a slightly dry finish. A very good porter.

Bottle. Dark brown pour, with some off-white head. Aroma is sweet malt, some smoke, and chocolate. The flavor is the same, a little smoked, a little sweet, and overall pretty decent beer.

Pours a dark black color with a thick tan head. Flavor is chocolatey and roasted, nicely balanced. Very good overall.

This porter is just hard to beat. Seriously a wonderful brew here. Chocolate, coffee, dark dried fruits in the aroma and on the palate. Hops are perfect. Carbonation is perfect. Head is nice and tan with some good lacing. Full body, full flavor. Winner!

malt, barley and chocolate flavors in a winey base of beer... this is a nice porter. moderate caramel flavor yet this beer is not slick but more full bodied and substantial yet refreshing. the bitter finish and tingle on the tongue is my signal of good hops inside. a little roasty and a little sweet. and a little surprised! nice beer.
