Sierra Nevada Porter

Sierra Nevada Porter
Porter
Sierra Nevada Brewing Co.
5.6% ABV
32 IBUs
OG 13.8 Plato
FG 3.5 Plato

12 oz poured into a shaker pint.

    Coffee colored, and noticeably lighter than other examples, but with a beautiful frothy coffee head. Good head retention too and excellent lacing. Smells very generic, and closer to a nut brown or dark ale than a porter: the roast is really not there.

    Clean, slightly sweet with a lightly roasty finish. Medium body and medium carbonation. Easy drinking beer, but nothing too great.

Appearance 4/5; Aroma 3/5; Taste 3/5; Mouthfeel 4/5; Overall 3/5
