Deep stone-red colour, cloudy because of the used wheat beer. A compact head.

Strong presence of the strawberry bouquet.
Flavour: Very mild, sweet fruity beer, with an excellent balance between sweet and sour (a result of the fruit used). This makes the beer very enjoyable to drink.

Enjoyed at a Belgian-style bar in Doha, Qatar. Best before July 2012. One of four Floris I had. Pours a little cloudy light peach-red colour with a big white creamy head that is slightly pink. The smell is of strawberry juice with some Belgian yeast. The taste though is watery with the strawberries. Gets a bit sweeter in the finish and gets even more fruity at the last pour. Overall refreshing, with aromas that are stronger than the flavours.

Draft @ Delirium, Brussels. Rougeâtre trouble, col rosé. Arôme est effectivement de fraise avec note assez sucrée. En bouche, on a une bière qui rappelle un peu la confiture/glace à la fraise qui reste sucré en bouche avec une fine note de houblon. Une bonne effervescence en bouche avec un profile malt très léger. Je déplore un peu cet aspect artisanal que j’avais pu voir dans des productions plus petites de bières à la fraise principalement dans le goût terreux qui ressort parfois de ce fruit. Néanmoins, une bière légère et rafraichissante.

330ml bottle, shared with the mrs. Pours a hazy red with no head. Aroma is strawberry jam, some tart notes. Sweet strawberry start, the jam is in the finish, slightly tart. Not as strong as the nose.

Draft at Euston Tap. Pours a dark, opaque purple-red with a strong, red head. Potent strawberry nose. Medium to high sweetness but not overdone, with some nice tart and sour notes and light bitterness towards the end. Light to medium in body with fine, massaging carbonation. Finishes sweet, with more strawberry and light tartness. Very, very good.

A hazed reddish ale with a thin white head. A rather chemical aroma of strawberry coughdrops, or cheap berry jello. In mouth, strawberry softdrink, not very beery. A bit cloying. Bottle from SAQ.

Bottled(330ml). -For sure this one is the most disgusting fruit beer I’ve ever tried. Neither I nor my girlfriend couldn’t drink whole bottle which never happened before. Sugary rotten strawberry taste...Awful...

Bottle from Dranken Geers. Hazy orange red colour with thin beige head. Strawberry jam aroma. Wow that does taste of strawberry jam. Not much else I can say. It’s liquid strawberry jam. No off or bad flavours. Just a bit too sweet to be drinkable.

330ml Bottle - Red/pink in colou. Strawberry jam aroma with a hint of vanilla ice cream. Sweet taste with strawberry and a hint of bubblegum. Refreshing but perhaps a bit too sweet for my liking.
