Paddy's Pumpkin Porter by Gallagher's Brewing Co.

At long last the porter is here and ready to be reviewed! From a 12oz bottle it poured a reddish black, but lacked a real head which was a bit disappointing. Smell was really impressive, lots of nutmeg and cinnamon. Taste was mostly spices with the nutmeg being the most prominent. Was a little plastic tasting which was a drawback, but the finish was very nice with some spices mixed in. Overall, a very light porter that is easy to drink and has some impressive spices to it. Definitely not a contender, but after the failed stout that was put out by GBC, this is a good improvement.
