DocLock (4083), Lower Pottsgrove, Pennsylvania, USA Mar 31, 2008 Bottle. Pours hazy golden with 2-finger off-white head. Nose is strawberry, but not a lot of berry here; the strawberry notes are subdued, and remind me of Lancaster’s strawberry wheat. Also got caro syrupy pale malt, some female foot sweat (don’t ask), and some cheddar cheese in the nose of this. The flavor is pale malty, hopcitric, with a subdued strawberry flavor, plus some defined aged cheese and female sweaty foot/taint notes. The off notes draw this one down in the rating, but don’t make it undrinkable. In fact, I’ll happily save the rest of my sixer for those hot summer days to come.
phishpond417 (1386), Green Bay, Wisconsin, USA Aug 20, 2008 Overall a pretty decent brew and very well balanced. A little hesitant at first, my mind was changed pretty quickly. Pours a bright cloudy golden colour with a full white head. Taste is very refreshing, soft fresh strawberries and honey on the nose. On the palate, strawberries again as well as a little grass. Clear and clean taste throughout the beer. BlackDonald (1040), North Carolina, USA Aug 15, 2008 Pours a light clear golden coloring, has a breakfast ceral malt aroma with that artifical fruit flavoring, like strawberry quick. A decent lager as a standalone, biscuity albeit grainy cereal maltiness, with a very thin body and fading artifical fruit flavors. bconger (46), Birmingham, Alabama, USA Aug 9, 2008 Bottle. Yellow pour with a fluffy, white head. Aromas of sweet strawberry syrup and...lager. Tastes like a macrolager with Quaker Oats strawberry instant oatmeal mixed in. That said, it’s not altogether unpleasant. I probably won’t buy it again, but I wouldn’t turn it down at a party. hopdog (4525), Lansdale, Pennsylvania, USA Jul 25, 2008 12oz bottle. Poured a medium and slightly hazy golden color with a smaller sized head. Aromas of strawberries / berries, and grains. Tastes of strawberries (more so than the aromas). Thinner body. illinismitty (1397), Nashville, Tennessee, USA Jul 19, 2008 Updated: Jul 21, 2008Bottle at Bourbon Street Blues and Boogie Bar in Nashville. Pours golden with a white head. Macro like texture. Beery and strawberry aroma. Flavor is pretty much strawberry, cheap pale lager, a hint of nuts, all combined with too much sweetness. Not my thing.
