A - Very pale. Pure white head.

S/T - Smells just like it tastes, a strawberry so mild that it blends harmoniously with the grainlike flavors underneath it rather than tasting like something with strawberry syrup in it. I'd say 3.75 for both here if we could do quarter-points.

M - Just slightly soft

O - What a great job. I figured this would be a drink-once novelty but I'm adding this to my summer lineup. The strawberry level was handled expertly. It's just there enough to notice and appreciate it but not so much as to really taste like a strawberry-flavored drink. It's not particularly sweet or thick or overly strawberry-y. Well done. So refreshing and crisp and nice and drinkable.

A fruit beer that is not overwhelming like most fruit beers out there today. Nice smell very light but you get a good whiff of strawberry in the nose... at first sip the malt Is all there but literally 1/4 of a second later the strawberry kicks in on the middle of your tongue. It also runs down your throat slightly which is nice. Mouthfeel is about normal... nothing superb. A bit of a bite from the hops but nothing major. Overall a good beer and the best and only strawberry beer I've tried. To me a balance is everything and this beer is not overwhelming on any part. Would definitely recommend to fruit beer lovers
