Teased from the loam by the kiss of the Sun. Mom's Strawberry Rhubarb delights are the happy memories of childhood. Diploma Master Brewer Dan employed juicy sweet Strawberries to take the barbaric wild tart fermentation of rhubarb. Escaped from the far corners of neighboring yards, local rhubarb was incorporated into the wild sour fermentation to create this drinkable dream. Bright sour and effervescent. Toast chilled cold to Bright skies, fireflies, bare feet and rhubarb pies!

Thanks Jessica.

Bottle to becher glass.
Appearance: thick dark red color with a two finger eggshell white foamy head which fell off nicely to leave some light lace
Aroma: straight up strawberry sweet and tartness and rhubarb sweet and tartness
Flavor: it's sweet and tart with those fruits and not much of a finish but seemed slightly strawberry-ish
Texture: medium bodied - maybe a touch under, sessionable, some smoothness but also noticeable tart aggression (but to me, an acceptable aggression)
Overall: another bangin' fruit beer more than worthy of returning to.

Sample Pour. Fruit red color under a fizzy head. Not much of any rhubarb in the nose, but some fine strawberries and cream. A little more tart than my previous cherry Serendipity, But the creamy note continues on the palate. A bit more complex than a meter fruity ale, and likeable for that reason.

Sweet & unexpected freshie at Sam's tasting.
Clear, cherry cordial color, slight lace.
Smell is deep n sweet strawberry jam with a slight veggie backdrop.
More sweet then sharp, cooked down jam, toast, slight lemon brightness, some apple-ish astringency on the tail.
Lightweight, sugary, natural.
Easy on the palette.

Can shared by Turd: Poured a ruby with a pink white head. Aroma is strawberry, rhubarb. Taste is strawberry, pitty, rhubarb tanginess, great balance.

FLLW, again again super impressed and still falling in love with new Glarus. Perfect rhubarb and strawberry balance and still love the small form factor.

Bottle courtesy of Virby44. Cheers! Dirty auburn and murky with a creamy head of modest duration. Big strawberry jam aroma. Undertone of freshly baked muffins. Wonderful mix of tartness and sweetness—goes down like a strawberry/rhubarb pie. Finishes with bananas and bubblegum. Medium bodied, moderate to mild carbonation. Dessert like and yet refreshing. Never knew I could like fruit beer this much. Great.

Delish. Just as good as last year. My mom loved it but not as much as their other fruit beers. I agree but I’m still stoked this beer exists.

Bottle. Pink brown colour, little head. Aroma is strawberry cheesecake, bit funky, some citrus, sweet. Taste is great. All fruit beers should be like this. Bit sour from rhubarb, good strawberry sweetness. Creamy but still a bit tart. Really nice. Texture like a lambic. Initial sourness then goes into strawberry cheesecake. Best beer of the day by miles.
