On draft poured a light pink color, interesting color overall for a wheat beer. Aromas of bubble gum, light strawberries, wheat and a hint of spice. Flavor is much the same, almost like the Cintirum beer they just brewed with some fresh strawberries added to it.

Pours a pinkish cloudy peach color. No head. Nose is fresh strawberry, wheat, spice and yeast. Flavor is a refreshing fresh strawberry melded with some tart fruit and spices. Super refreshing.

Very slight pink note, cloudy, big white head. Yeasty, gum, light berry aroma. Flavor is a bit watery, berries, yeast. Ok.

On tap for Hunhapu’s Day 2012. Poured an awkward pink hued cloudy yellow. Slight aroma of sweet strawberry and a hint of spicy belgian yeast. The fruit on this one is a little weak, but actually does well to balance out all the flavors. A fruit beer that doesn’t scream "FRUIT"... not too bad.

One of the crazy fruity beers @ Hunahpu’s day. There wasn’t much of a head, but a nice hazy pink body that looked like anything but a beer. The taste was full of citrus and hops, but with a fantastic, crisp strawberry tart towards the finish. As it warmed up the strawberry and some yeast came through more and more. Incredibly drinkable.

On firkin at the brewery, 5 August. Pours a hazy pink- yellowy color with a small white head. Nose is berry, spice, wheat, yeast, and slight pepper. Flavor is similar that tastes very much like a strawberry wheat beer where both characters meld. Interesting mesh of sweet and wheat. Light in body and pretty nice.
