Fles bbe 03/2024, dus al even geleden gebotteld. Ik dronk AP ws voor het eerst in 1998 in de San Francisco Bay Area (ik herinner me de Starry Plough in Berkeley), wellicht al iets eerder, maar blijkbaar niet meer in mijn beer-rating years. Schenkt vrijwel zwart, met een mooie fijne beige kraag waar een dun laagje van overblijft. Geur is zoetig, gebrande suiker, iets rood fruit. Retronasaal is het redelijk gebrand/geroosterd, iets fruit. Smaak is licht zoet, gebrand bitterig. Lichte body. Zachte koolzuurprikkeling. Afdronk van gebrande mout, licht bitter. Prima nog steeds, nauwelijks veroudering. Wanneer komt Anchor nou weer eens terug Chobani man?

Draft. Pours very dark with a minimalistic head. Chocolate, malts, your standard porter stuff. OK.

0.35 l bottle @ home. Pours pitch black with everlasting beige head. Nose is mainly sweet with distincitve notes of fruits, something that reminds me of truffle, some faint cinnamon and roasted malts. Basically the same notes appear in taste, wrapped in a beautiful creamy mouthfeel. Short to medium bittersweet finish (roasted notes and cocoa), light body and average carbo. Good one, full of flavours especially for a relaitvely low ABV.

Pours a deep black with a small creamy head. Aroma of roasted malts, coffee, caramel, dark chocolate, some hops present. Almost like a stout but very easy to drink. I really enjoyed this brew and will definitely revisit!

Bottiglia. Il naso trova sentori di orzo tostato. La finezza olfattiva è normale e si prolunga in modo sufficiente. Il manto birroso superiore resiste poco. La grandezza delle bollicine è a grana fine. Il colore è scuro impenetrabile. Il corpo è pieno. Il dolce è medio in buona armonia con l'amaro medio. La forza gustativa è elevata e la durata è sufficiente. Le sensazioni boccali finali risultano di birra beverina. Il retrogusto è di decente intensità. Al palato arrivano note di caramello, miele, caffè, liquirizia, frutta secca, pane tostato, erbaceo ed agrumi.

Классический портер из США. Имеет очень богатый винный вкус. Также присутствует привкус черного жженого хлеба. После глотка чувствуется легкая кислинка и сухость на языке. У пиво потрясающе красивая кофейная пена. В общем всем советую.

(Bottle, 35,5 cl) All the Anchor beers wakes up good memories from my US road trips back in the 90es. Oh sweet innocence... Tar-like blackness with a slightly creamy, brownish head. No extra added fermentables or carbon dioxide. Fat and powerful, sweet almost port-like with a dry hoppiness on the palate. Very interesting Porter. 3.0
