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.

A golden beer, a head is medium and blond. Aroma has fruitness, some yeast and spices. Taste is mix of fruits and basic light malts, also weird earthy sidetaste. Medium bodied, low carbonation. Only hint of belgian fruits. Unfortunaltely, this is too mild and modest.

Pour is a black with a noisy large tan head. Aroma is like root beer soda. That typical anise and black licorice with some sweetness. Flavor is a bit watery and bland. Not much of that root beer soda shows up. Its a bit sweet and thatโs about it. Smells great but what happened to the flavor? Way watery. You could probably make this better yourself with some Barqโs root beer soda and a splash of some white rum.

355ml bottle from Ales by Mail
Pours pitch black with a small brown head. Aroma of roasty malts, salty licorice, dark chocolate, coffee, molasses and syrup. Taste is smooth, sweetish and roasty with hints of licorice, dark chocolate, syrup and coffee. Finish is smooth, sweetish and roasty with notes of licorice, dark chocolate and syrup. Pretty smooth and balanced.

Bottle. Woody coffee and chocolate malt aroma. Black with minimal head. Woody-earthy plum, coffee, chocolate, malt and lightly bitter herbal flavor. Nice body. Gets an extra point for being in a 12 ounce bottle. Very good.
