This week, I bring you Anchor Porter. I’ve had it several times before, but just got around to ranking it.
It has a little initial sweetness, but afterwards is overwhelming savory, almost like peppered beef jerky. But strangely, the aftertaste is sweet again. It’s an interesting effect. It isn’t tangy or too bubbly, and doesn’t kick you in the teeth. Decent overall, but nothing to write home about.

Do you think it’s one of the darkest on the planet?
I wish I could find one from @ 20 years ago named Vaux Double Maxim. Have you ever seen that one?
Hmm… I can tell dark beer from light, but I dont know how to evaulate “darkness” by itself. It’s sure chewy and complex.
I’ve never heard of Vaux Double Maxim. I’ll keep my eyes peeled!
