T|E|H: Our Wilde New Years Eve

1. Name : Joyus Frivoloty, Cranberry Porter

2. Brewery: Wilde Child, Leeds

3. Hops :  Not specified

4. Aroma : Strong scents of fruits of the forest more so that cranberry with a cheeky mellow malt in the background.

5. Appearance :  Dark with a slight purple tinge, with a mushroom head when poured.

6. Body :  Thin bodied, well carbonated with no head retention.

7. Taste :  Forrest Fruits meets a cheeky Vimto with a lingering berry flavour and a dry finish.

This one has a sweetness to it that builds as you drink, and the aftertaste is so long that it will almost certainly taint anything that you have afterwards, not too bad if your going to have another but a killer if you are moving on. This one is a little too sweet for me, but I can definitely see a lot of people liking this one.

John’s overall rating: 3.3/ 5.0
