    12 Beers of Christmas Day 10: Vanilla Porter

    Quarry Brewing’s first Christmas beer special let me down with their Peanut Butter Porter, but redeemed themselves with an excellent Vanilla Porter. Just like any unique type of porter, you want that good amount of flavor which separates itself, in this case, the vanilla porter has plenty of that vanilla taste to it. It almost…

The Christmas Spice Copper was a fun addition to the holiday brew series, as the owner hit it right with describing this just like gingerbread. The immediate ginger/cinnamon taste certainly made their Copper…
