12 oz. bottle from Julio’s Liquors’. Side –by-side comparison with Alchemist Celia. Although not fair, they are much different. Transparent yellow with very thin, tiny head, plus it does have a pink like hue! Light lace. Nose is loads and loads of strawberry! Real sweet. When I was a teenager a buddy’s mother made us Strawberry and rhubarb pie. Damn, this is a REAL similar flavor and instantly this brew reminded me of that pie. Light body with a lively tingle on the mouth. If you have a wife or girlfriend that hasn’t had a lot of craft beer, this could help you introduce more styles to her. Big berry finish. Maybe a bit sweet for some, not me! Really damn tasty. It actually inspires me to drive to Gloucester, Ma. to try on draft.

Pours hazy gold into a shaker. White head with medium retention recedes to hug rim. Mild strawberry aromas. Medium bodied with yeasty strawberries upfront turning into a mild sour finish.

Draft at the brewpub. Hazy yellow brew with a definite fall fruit aspect, but quite restrained, well caged in the backdrop. A yeasty/wheaty character prevails over a nice active palate. (#4227, 8/24/2011)

tap at Stags head. fruity effervesence. Hazy sediment copper pour. Nice light caramel with dry funk. smooth and sweet, some astringency on the finish. well balanced.
