Anchor Small Beer

Ive tried most of the other Anchor beers while at a brewery tour and liked most of them, so I was excited when I came across a bottle of their Small Beer.

First Impressions: lighter then I had expected, nice light amber colored, smells faintly sweet

Taste: hoppy yet lighter ... not in a normal way, almost like a light ipa if something were to exist. has a bit of anchor steam flavor at first, but none of the malt sweetness in balance. ends with a bitter aftertaste.

Overall: ok/good Its not amazing, but looking at the bottle now it says its from the leftover mash from their oldfoghorn barleywine. That explains why it tastes so light, Its still interesting if not the most tasty of brews
