On tap at Strathcona. Pours an opaque dull yellow with a white head. Strawberry purrée and lacto on the nose. Flavour has underripe strawberries and aggressive lacto. Local mediocrity in a glass.

Has a nice guava look to it. Thin head. On the nose, both fruits. They go together okay, but guava plays well with most things. There’s a bit of underlying tartness, and a dash of sweetness.

Cloudy orange with a decent white head. Guava on the nose. Soured guava and no strawberry to speak of.

473mL can, pours an opaque murky reddish orange with a large white head. Nose is full of strawberry puree, tropical fruit juice, and some sweetness from the lactose. Flavour is very fruity and juicy, with an intense amount of strawberry puree, mouth-puckering citrusy tropical fruit from the guava, and just enough sweetness. Has quite the citrusy pucker on the finish, but backed by a nice sweetness. Simple but tasty.
