On tap at Elmer Sudds in Wilkes Barre PA, poured into a pint glass.

A:Reddish/Amber Hue, Passes Some Light, White Head Ring, Some Lacing

S: Mild Wheat, Mild Tart Strawberries

T: Mild Wheat, Mild Dank Strawberries

M: Decent Carbonation, Light to Medium Bodied, Mild Tart

Overall, not even a refreshing light wheat beer, the (faux?) Strawberry they used is almost offensive to the taste buds.

Serving type: on-tap

look: 3.25 | smell: 2.75 | taste: 3 | feel: 3.25 | overall: 3

Appearance: Golden orange color with 1 finger of a soapy white head that dissipated fairly quickly. Clarity is good with only a slight haze.

Smell: Artificial strawberry, grain, honey, some slight cracker/biscuity malt. Pretty mild nose.

Taste: Slight sweetness upfront, with weak flavors of wheat and grain. Strawberry comes through more in the finish and aftertaste and while it does taste artificial, it's not unpleasant.

Mouthfeel: Fuller side of light bodied. Medium levels of prickly carbonation. Crisp and finishes fairly clean.

Overall: Not bad, but certainly not good either. Might be refreshing on a hot summer day but that's about it. Other than that it's just another forgettable fruited wheat beer.

look: 3.5 | smell: 4 | taste: 2.75 | feel: 3.25 | overall: 3.25

Poured from bottle into a pint glass

Appearance –The beer pours a ever so slightly hazed orange-amber color with a one finger off white colored head. The head fades quite fast leaving little to almost no lacing on the sides of the glass.

Smell – The aroma is sweet of strawberries and some other light fruit aromas of blueberries. Mixed with these are some wheat aromas and a light candy smell.

Taste – The taste is much less sweet and has much less strawberry flavor then would have been anticipated from the nose. It begins with a lighter wheat and strawberry flavor. These flavors create a base for the brew with the wheat staying relatively constant and the strawberry getting slightly stronger more toward the end. Along with the strawberry getting stronger, a light hop flavor of a citrus nature as well as some corn syrup sweetness comes to the tongue leaving a moderately sweet candied strawberry flavor to linger on the tongue.

Mouthfeel – The body of the brew is on the thinner side with a relatively high carbonation. Good for the style as it makes it easy drinking, but nothing too exceptional.

Overall – OK, but the flavor it leaves on the tongue is a little bit off putting. It would likely be much better on a warm summer day outside as opposed to how it was drunk today; on a cold snowy day inside, just trying to stay warm.
