Polygamy Porter @ SLC

Posted by Patrick under Great Alaska Barleywine Fest:2006

Sadly, I won’t be posting pictures of bears, or Grizzly Adams lookalikes from Anchorage.

Because of all the cancellations yesterday, the only two Alaska Airlines flights from Seattle to Anchorage that had not been cancelled were hyper-booked. I stood a very small chance of getting there, but more importantly did not want to get stuck there if cancellations continue over the next couple of days.

So, I am now in Salt Lake City, enjoying a Polygamy Porter at the Wasatch Pub in D Concourse as a consolation prize.

Since Utah has limits in place on how strong draft beers can be (4.2%), all the beers have a thin body to them. This porter is actually quite pleasant, roasty and slightly acrid from the brown malts used to brew it.

I’ll be moving to another concourse soon to the other pub. More from there.
