5.2/10 — Appearance 6 Aroma 6 Flavor 5 Texture 4 Overall 5
Cask at Hogshead, Wolverhampton Well, if I hadn’t read existing reviews, I woulkd have said there was something wrong with this beer. But other people have mentioned its weird taste, so here goes. Pours a rich ruby red with s small cream head. Nose has a fruity sourness – maybe strawberries. In the mouth it is sharp, fruity and acidic – like unripe plums and cherries. Finish is fruity too. It’s OK as a beer, but any resemblance to a porter is coincidental !
