Draft/Fest. A- Anise, spices, subtle hops. A- Brown color, dark liquid, off white head. T- Anise, molasses, slightly sweet, spices. P- Full body, thin texture, average carbonation, soft finish. O- I thought this was a brown ale and then find out it’s a porter. It is a good beer but for a porter I figured it would be a little more robust or more cocoa or something. Plenty of spices in it.
