i tried st. peter's old-style porter earlier this week. i really liked the bottle, and i love love love porters. there are not enough porters available in new york bars. when i lived in oregon, there were so many places that brewed their own beers, and i garnered a taste for porters. i long for the days when i could go almost any bar and ask for a beer by type, not brand, because everyone made their own.
this was a tasty beer. it was not very expensive, a big pint for less than $4. it was sweet, but not sugary, dark but not so heavy. a bit of coffee, a bit of chocolate flavor. not very bubbley.i don't know what makes it "old-style." it was a pretty good beer all-around, but not the best beer i have ever had. although, i would drink it again. definitely.
and who doesn't like a unicorn with his or her beer?
