Anchor Porter

How do I miss some of these brews? I've had many of Anchor brewing's fine offerings, but managed to sail by their porter. All of Anchor's beers have a distinctive tart sweetness - more evident in some than others - the porter has it. Not very heavy, but it does have a deep, rich taste and aroma. The aftertaste is full of figs, raisins and sweet prune - I know, that last one doesn't sound appetizing, but it's better than it sounds. Of course there's the obligatory coffee and dark chocolate. Good stuff. Go buy yourself a six pack.
