Anchor Brewery Old Foghorn

Oh, what to say about this beer! Bright cherry and copper color. A surprisingly subtle nose given the hopping and gravity rates, but velvety rich with a solid citrus and earty hop (Northern Brewer?) base. Nose also contains hints of dried, dark fruit and fig. Beautiful. The beer itself is full-bodied, with a solid pale malt base. Minute hints of chocolate or toffee, maybe? Deep, almost achey bitterness, like the hops had much, much more to say when the beer was younger but have since settled down. Jason says that they do a wonderful job aging the beer sufficiently before shipping out.

I guess I have to make one of these now, too.
