Description
Mission Brewery was originally established in 1913, but like most breweries of the time, it went out of business during the first year of Prohibition. In 2007, Dan Selis, an avid homebrewer, re-established the brand and has built it into one of the top craft breweries in San Diego County.

On tap: 10oz pour at the Stadium Brewery brewpub in California on 18th May 2015. Black body, tanned topping. Malts all the way here, slightly over carbonated for me but I thought it was a Porter anyway! No one else has mentioned liquorice in their tasting notes, so I will: it tasted of liquorice from start to finish with a few fruity traces around the base liquorice flavour. No Belgian influence for me, but a decent enough brew all the same.

Bottla bomber at home split with Sarah. Traded with THeydon Bois. Opaque black coloured pour with a fading mid tan head. Got legs. Aroma is dry roast coffee, milky coffee, some caramel, little toasted coconut, earthy edge. Flavour is sweet brown malts, milky coffee, bitter coffee, toasted cocnut, earthy. Maybe a little age. Some mellow smoke. Palate is full and relatively smooth, highish carbonation Lingering bitter roast with sweet caramel. Maybe a litle rough round the edges. Good boost.

Bottle @ home from the rot box. Black appearance with a dark brown head. Anise, dark chocolate, coffee, earth, prunes, and blackberries in the nose. Medium full body. Pretty well balanced- moderate high sweetness and bitterness. Lots of chocolate and dark fruit. The booze isn’t too much. A little bit of pine. Pretty good.
