Cannery Brewing - Blackberry Porter
Pours very dark, almost black with a good sized tan coloured head.
The aroma of berries comes through even as I pour, Blackberry is about the only aroma I can find.
Feel is nice and full, rich, a bit creamy.
Taste is full, the berries are present but not as pronounced in the taste as in the aroma, a dark chocolate and roast coffee taste dominates. A nice bit of citrus cleans up the heavy dark malt tastes and gives it a bit of brightness. It's definitely loaded with roasted grain tastes but not overpowering, and the finish is lingering citrus and berries.
I'd drink it often if I could get it.

Cannery Brewing - Blackberry Porter
Pours very dark as a porter normally does. Light brown, thick head that clings to the side of the glass.
Aroma is coffee, berries, some citrus and earthiness.
Medium mouth feel. It actually leaves a kind of muddy feeling in the mouth.
Lots of berry, some dark chocolate under tones as well as a citrus drying. Coffee is there as well. If not for the muddy feel in my mouth I would think this is a great brew but that spoils the over all experience.

Only 10 Miles?
I live in Ontario, it would take a bit of a ride for me to pick up a sixpack of it.
If I was still 20 or so it might almost be worth it.
Great review. I really like
Great review. I really like this one as well. Too bad we can't get it regularly in Ontario.

It would be really nice if we could get as big a variety of inter-provincial beers as we can imported beers.
Ain't the Nanny State wonderful?
