Streetside We’ve Strayed from the Light

We’ve Strayed is an imperial strawberry cheesecake Berliner with chocolate. I enjoyed the (plain) strawberry version at the brewery and was eager to try the chocolate version. This is a big, thick deliciously desert-y beverage. The beer is a gorgeously thick, reddish-brown in the glass with a very thick creamy head. The aroma is very strongly chocolate and strawberry cheesecake (emphasis on the chocolate). As for the flavor, think strawberry chocolate Captain Crunch and slightly tart. This is a very thick and rich beer and at 10%, it is stronger than most of what I partake in (and I can feel it), however the alcohol does not dominate the experience. I would definitely do only one of these bad boys, but I would enjoy it immensely. I think I like the regular (strawberry only) version just a bit better. Let me just say…I am a fan.
