[12oz can of Cumulonimbus, from Total Wines, Naples, FL.] A hazy pale amber pour with a billowing cream coloured head; aroma of berries and grassy hops; soft in the mouth with lots of sweet berry flavours, particularly strawberry; then a slightly tarter finish. Not at all what I was expecting, but rather good.
