Bottle. Pours a hazy light brown with a very small ring of white head. Aroma of sweet strawberry and fruit juices. Flavor is sweet with lots of strawberry. Overall this beer is sweet, easy drinking, and enjoyable (although I do admit it is lacking in complexity).

gloriously thick flavor of sugar, not strawberry. Sweet and thick, hardly any sourness or vinegar flavor. Bottle from Knightly Spirits, Orlando.
2.7 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 11/20 rudolf (2229) - Buffalo, New York, USA - OCT 16, 2009
Bottle courtesy of Swoopjones! Thanks! Pours a cloudy ruddy orange with a thin white head. Nose is imitation strawberry syrup - not quite strawberry ice cream level, more like strawberry twizzlers or runts. Past that sweet strawberry is maybe a bit of lambic acidic character and a hint of must. Flavor is imitation strawberry, a bit of lemon. More funk than I expected but it’s really overwhelmed by the cloying sweetness. I’ve had sodas that were less sweet than this. Still, better than expected - I’d probably take this over the sweetened lindemans lambics if offered the choice - at least this shows some authentic character.

3.4 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 15/20 StefanSD (1542) - Lakeside, California, USA - JUN 5, 2009
Bottle at Toncatchers. Thanks to Wetherel for bringing this. A reddish-brown pour with a small off-white head. The aroma is sweet and fruity with strawberries. The taste is more of the same, but I’d think that the flavor is more like chemical strawberry extract rather than fresh berries. The mouthfeel is moderately full with lively carbonation. Overall: Not bad, just a bit too sweet for me.
