12 ounce bottle from somewhere. Pours a clear red color with a thin head. Poor retention and lacing. Aroma is grain with an odd spicy note. Some sweet malts as well. Taste is sweet grainy malts with a hint of caramel. Thin bodied.

Overall Impression: A pretty weak beer, fruity, relatively boring...even for a fruit beer this one isn't too great

Pours clear deep gold into a shaker. Bright white head recedes to coat rim leaving spotted sheets. Strawberry aromas. Sour, rotten strawberries upfront and into the medium lasting finish.

Bottle. Body is a nice reddish amber and supports a pretty good fluffy head. Aromas are malty... caramel and nuts with a little bit of a crisp grass and citrus. Flavor is a bit ugly, especially when compared to the appearance and aromas, both of which were nice. Kind of a watery malt presence with a little bit of a taste of oldness.

Bottle. Frothy white head, mostly diminishing above a medium amber body. The aroma has notes of grain, grass, dough, apple. The flavor is moderately sweet and lightly bitter. The finish is only slightly more bitter than the initial taste. Medium body, sticky texture. I am reminded of sticky, sweet apple juice poured through dusty grain.

Pours ruby brown into a shaker. Off-white head recedes to skim surface. Sour fruit aromas. Dry and crisp with sour malts and slightly spiced finish. Rather boring.

Bottle. (Cool label so I’m adding one point to appearance.) Pour is an amber that borders on copper with a little bit of an off white head that dies down in short order. Aromas are understated and boring with a touch of grainy sweetness and caramel. Flavor is pretty darn nice. Almost like a creamy amber ale without too much crisp hopping. Sweet and creamy caramel malts with a bit of a honey background and just a touch of yeast and hops that balance things out a little and keep it from being cloying. Wonderfully simple.

Aromas of strawberry and wheat. Nice copper color with a white head that flattened rapidly. Medium body with creamy carbonation. The flavor is strawberry, along with some pale malt and wheat. Arguably some small amount of bitter. The finish is crisp and clean, with just a bit of herb/hop. Pretty good way to disguise a lager.

Bottle. Strawberry malt aroma. Golden yellow with small head. Slightly sweet strawberry malt flavor with a hint of hops to finish. Highly carbonated. A nice enough light fruit beer.

Tongue on blue label. Bread loaf yeast fragrance. Brobdingnagian foamy head that eventually fades to rocky chunks. Behold to the eye, a hyaline orange yellow appearance. Some bubbly tang for a mouthsense. Uncultivated malt or hop taste experience. Overall a little too much ale disposition than I care for. Not as good as Anderson Valley Summer Solstice Cerveza Crema or West Virginia Cheat Mountain Gold. Probably on par with Oskar Blues Money Shot Cream Ale and Gennessee Cream ale.
