12 Beers of Christmas- Cutthroat Porter

I felt like I should sneak some dark beers into my list.  While I almost exclusively drink Pale Ales or IPAs, I still love a nice roasty dark beer on occasion.  When I started drinking craft beer it was almost exclusively stouts.  I think this is a common starting point for most people.  A noob can appreciate that beer can be associated with coffee and chocolate, yum, instead of skunky hops, yuck!  Then as I tried different beers and expanded my brewing I grew an appreciation for hops.  So I come back to this beer from time to time because it was one that I liked in the early years of my beer journey.  Revisiting the Cutthroat Porter now I find it to be quite sour, but I am known to be sensitive to sour flavors in beers.  When I brew a porter or stout I like a lot of roasted malt.  So while I will always have fond memories of this beer, and you have to admit the logo is awesome, I don't pick up a six-pack all that often.
