Sam Adams Holiday Porter



Looks like a Porter, tastes like a Porter. This one was hoppy and didn't have the buttery feel of the Michelob Porter. Very smooth. Porters are quickly becoming one of my favorite beer styles. Not sure why this is "holiday porter", as it didn't have a particularly unique holiday taste...not like the cinnamon, ginger and orange of the fezziwinkle beer.

Overall Grade: A
PQ = 47.2

the winter lager scored the same...it was slightly better, but i couldn't give the A+.

Bud Heavy will have a higher PQ once I get a cheap case at Costco.
