Beer score: 8.8
Company: Anchor Brewery
ABV: 4.9
IBU: 35
The Anchor brewing folk have for a long while been making beers that would make any beer snob proud. I've been drinking this one off and on for a quarter century now and have enjoyed every single one of them.
It's strong but smooth with medium caramel coloring and a decent head, but not too fizzy. Fantastic as a bar beer because of its strength and great taste, but a bit too strong for an everyday or lawn-mowing beer. Goes great with bar food, cigars, and barbecue chicken, as I can attest personally.
Has a slight caramel taste and you can smell that before you even take a swig. Also has the barest hint of a fruity flavor. The bitterness is fairly strong but doesn't kick in until this drink is sliding down your throat.
Drink this. You'll enjoy it.
