mrjaxson (1146) - .08 Junction, WI, Wisconsin, USA - AUG 8, 2020UPDATED: AUG 8, 2020 This one was an excellent conclusion to a night of pizza and beer on a Midwestern midsummer night patio. Chocolate maltiness and rye spices in the nose. Taste is smoothly sweet with incredible balance considering all the hopiness about. Long, smooth, sweet finish. This half-litter bottle had been waiting in the beer fridge for at least a few years and, unfortunately, had no bottling date on the label or bottle. A great porter.
