Feral Strawberry Porter

Tasted on draught at the brewery/restaurant. In the glass the beer was darker than the normal brown porters, cola coloured with a tinge of red in the light. Head formed and died back to short beige lather. Aroma was of burnt wood and grain, with a light and zesty sweetness, strawberries???. Taste was of a good Porter-style with the burnt black malt, roasted coffee, and a creamy chocolate sweetness. No real strawberry taste, more of an aroma in the nose. Possibly would be a greater beer with the omission of the strawberries from final fermentation. Still a decent example of modern porter.

Almost dark muddy brown with faint red tinge (strawberry?)a short tan head that was mostly lasting and nice lacing. Aroma of chocolate with a hint of smoke and then right at the end strawberry. Flavour was all porter, mild coffee roasted malt pleasant bitterness and medium body. The strawberry was not to upfront the first time I tried it but after sampling the rest of the range is was a lot more pronounced the second time. Cheers!
