Samuel Adams Holiday Porter
Why do I have to buy whole winter sampler for 2 bottles of this? Sam Holiday Porter pours mostly black with maroon highlights. Beige head that holds for a short while and leaves minimal lace. Smells of caramel malt, blackberries and currant. Tastes of smooth, unassuming chocolate and caramel malt backbone with a subtle hop and creme de cassis kiss. This is a sexy beer. SAHP has decent mouthfeel with a high drinkability due to it's pronounced yet unabrassive flavors. A winter favorite.
