Anchor Porter became the first modern American porter style beer when it was introduced in 1972. A blend of specially roasted pale, caramel, chocolate, and black malts, along with our top-fermenting yeast, creates complexity without bitterness. The brew is hopped at a high rate, and naturally carbonated. The result is dark in the glass, but surprisingly light on the palate.

Bottle at The Lobstar, Madrid. A dark brown pour with a tan-to-beige head. Aroma is blackberry, blackcurrant, cola gummy. Drier than the nose forecasted. Medium to low-bodied. Fizzy, crisp, easy-going. Not all that jazz, to be honest.

talán túl sokat pihentettem, de nekem olyan volt mint a teherhajóból leengedett fáradt olaj.

A strong, sweet aroma of liquorice. Sweet taste with an abundance of liquorice, some hopbitterness and a touch of roasted malt. Bit of tartness in the finish. Nice, easy to drink porter, but I expected more complexity and assertiveness.
