RATING

For a brewery that produces so much beer (almost 19 million gallons in 2005 alone), it's a great feat that Sierra Nevada's brews continue to be incredible. Of course the immaculate condition they keep the brewery in must play a part in their consistency, not to mention the fastidious care the brewers put into all of their beers. Showcasing a mahogany color and a silky tan head, this porter tenders very noticeable hops in both its flavor and aroma, as well as coffee notes. And while Sierra Nevada's version is a bit hoppier than other porters, we'd expect nothing less from this hop-friendly brewery.
