Odell Cutthroat Porter

The Odell Brewing Company is in Fort Collins, Colorado. This is their 5.0% ABV porter.

The beer pours a very dark brown. There is a half-inch of light tan foam. The aroma is dark roasted, char, coffee, chocolate, and a touch of anise. The taste follows the aromas, hitting all the same dark roast notes. The finish is dry with a moderate bitterness. The beer drinks easy, with enough body for the flavors, and with a refreshment that is unusual for a porter.
