#302 Abita - Strawberry Harvest Lager

This beer has a slightly skunky aroma mix with a hint of fruit. The color is a standard lager straw with a bit of haze. The head is mild with good retention.

The taste is a little skunky with a hint of strawberry. The little bit of fruit flavor is very good but is is over shadowed by the skunked beer taste. There is some residual sweetness helping with the strawberry flavor. The mouthfeel is thin but refreshing. The finish is clean just a hint of fruit.

If there was no skunk taste this would be a pretty good beer. I again suspect the store I bought this from does a poor job rotating there selection of "build your own 6-pack" singles.
