Vintage Notes: 2004 Anchor Our Special Ale

Pours a deep porter opaque as did the others.....  better head retention..........  nose of spiced oatmeal and gingerbread porter.  Somewhat lackluster and light on the palate initially compared to the previous OSA entries, but finishes with a touch of raisin.  Not as dry, either, and I think the sweetness mollifies the flavor somewhat.
