Can. Strawberry and cider aroma. Golden yellow with small, short lasting head. Sweet strawberry and hard apple cider flavor. Really not too bad.

Bottle @ home, picked up at Wilbur’s Fort Collins. Going to dome this sumbitch. Pours a bubbly dark golden appearance with no lasting head. Really heavy artificial strawberry, jolly rancher aroma. Very sweet. Tons of cane sugar that coats your teeth. Mostly just strawberry, apple, and pear flavors. Kind of tastes like kool aid or I guess electric kool aid. Fuck it, let’s do the electric kool aid acid test. 8/10 chuggability index. Boost boost boost!

Pretty bleh. Strawberry candy nose and flavor, some hints of apple at the finish and the general character of an insipid sweetish lager. Fizzy enough to wash down OK, though it really would have been better if carb’d up a little more. Pale gold to straw color, no head.

Bottle. A- Strawberries, apples, urine, grains. A- Golden color, clear liquid, minimal head. T- Strawberries, apples, water. P- Light body, average texture, high carbonation, sour finish. O- Not too good. The aroma is awful, and usually the aroma is the best part of beers like this. The flavor isn’t horrible, but the strawberry isn’t strong and they taste artificial. I don’t care for either but I prefer the Apple Ale to this one by far.

Bottle poured into a shaker. Pours a clear pale gold with no head. Aroma of fake apples and fake strawberry. Taste is medium sweet. Follows aroma with the fake flavors. Light bodied with a thin texture. Fizzy carbonation and a very long finish. Overall, not bad. Even with the fake flavors this would be an enjoyable summer drink.

Bottle from Total Wine in Folsom, CA. Pours very light amber with no head. Aroma of berries and apples. Med minus body. Flavor is mixed apple and arguably strawberry. Certainly berry. Certainly drinkable, but when to drink it is the question. Or if.

12 oz bottle. Aroma is mostly strawberry (smells like strawberry candy rather than the real thing) with a little apple underneath. No offnotes. Pours a clear deep old gold with a quickly vaporizing white head. Looks completely flat in about a second or two. Taste is like substandard cider mixed with strawberry soda and cheap macro beer. Body is as thin as can be, highly carbonated. Drinkable, but this is an alcopop, through and through. It’s funny Ratebeer allows things like this, but not quality fruit-based ciders like Blue Mountain Cherry Cider, Tieton Apricot, etc.

Nice friendly smell. From a bottle its much better than expected. Is not cloying or artificial flavored. Yes, good tart and somewhat sweet brew. Goes down easy, meets my approval. Guess it looks like any other beer. Yes, very good similarities to real strawberries picked off the vine. Hides alky well, like a malt bev pop.

Apple juice gold, bubbly, virtually no head. Apple/strawberry juice aroma..(at arms length) Watery, strawberry taste. Very cidery... Better than expected.....not beer-like, though a nice taste.
