Avery New World Porter was not at all what I was expecting. I expected the usual dark coffee and chocolate flavors. What I got was a ton of hops. Reviews I've read elsewhere talk about the standard porter flavors being in there, but to me, this could have passed for an IPA if I had tasted it without seeing it. It was similar to Troegs' Dead Reckoning porter, but even hoppier.
Update: A lot of the strange flavor the first night was probably due to whatever I had been eating. I finished the rest of the six pack and while it was definitely very hoppy I could taste the standard porter flavors, too.
