Bottle. Dark pink, scant head. Aroma of candy. Taste starts sweet, watery, then bitter. Too sweet, over-hopped, unbalanced.

0.33L bottle, small head that stays for a while, clear light bronze colour, wheaty aroma with the lightest fruity hint, flavour of wheat with notes of candy and strawberries and a suprisingly strong complementing bitterness for such a light beer, pleasant sour fruity aftertaste. Quite enjoyable.

Bottle. Beer of the Month club. Clear deep golden with a medium white head. Sweet aroma of strawberry-flavored tooth paste. Sweet fruity flavor with some bread, wheat, light spiciness and a bit of artificial strawberry candies. Finishes grainy. Light-medium body. Strong carbonation. Aroma is a bit disgusting, but the flavor isn’t as bad.

12 ounce bottle from Whole Foods Market, Charlottesville, VA. Pours a slightly hazy pale red color with a medium sized creamy head. Good head retention and decent lacing. Aroma of sweet strawberries with a bit of a cheesy note. The taste is strawberries, yogurt, bread and a grainy finish. The strawberry seems a bit candylike and the beer doesn’t seem to be well put together. Average.

On tap at Lancaster brewpub. The beer is a light amber color. The taste is wet wheat and some strawberry. Overall, not much taste, and it is just ok.

June 2009 Beer of the Month Club , 7/6/09

Aroma: Light nose of stale strawberries and not much else
Appearance: Clear orange-red color, no head
Flavor: Some fruity malts and mot much else, pretty dull
Palate: Light body, short duration, kind of sticky
Overall Impression: I've had this one before, but not for a while. Thanks, a lot for sending me a beer from Lancaster that I can buy anywhere around me, really, that's wonderful, people definitely join Beer of the Month Clubs to get beers that are easily available not for hard to find stuff...End Rant
Anyway, it's OK, boring fruit beer, not much wheat beer characteristics, and I didn't think the strawberries tasted very good either.

Bottle. Pours a darkish gold with a couple of fingers of white head and aromas that are thick with strawberries and cream. Flavor has a similar strawberry presence that overwhelms any other flavors that might be hiding. That said, this is really nice for a no brainer fruit beer.
