Anchor has a long proud tradition stretching back to 1871. It took the name Anchor at the end of the 19th century and it has survived fires, unexpected deaths, Prohibition, and changes in fashion and fads, to still be making some of America’s finest beers and spirits. Anchor Porter became the first modern American porter when it was introduced in 1974, and it still has a huge following. It contains a blend of roasted pale, caramel, chocolate, and black malts, and is made with top-fermenting yeast. The brew is hopped at a high rate, and is naturally carbonated. The result is dark in the glass, but is bitter free and surprisingly light on the palate. This beer has lots of chocolate, liquorice, coffee, toast, and cream. There are traces of dark fruit jam, dried fruits, and cocoa beans.
