Odd-looking pink color. Slightly hazy, thin bubbly pinkish white head. Initial aroma is okay with banana, wheat, light strawberry. But that is quickly followed by fake strawberry flavors, reminiscent of some sort of kids cereal. Flavor is messed up... fake sweet strawberry, wheat, watery sugar. Way to go with the sugar and fake flavor additions. One interesting thing is that I’ve heard people who would be into this type of crap complain about this beer.

Pretty brew. Cloudy peach pour with a light pink head. Smells like a strawberry scented candle. Not as overly sweet as I thought it would be. In fact, it could be a tad sweeter. What really, Really, REALLY, REALLY kills this is the after taste of artificial flavor. This is obviously not all natural. There is a chemical in this that was rejected by Frankenberry! You’re better than this, Sprecher. Try again!!!!

Unfiltered peach color with a thin quickly diminishing off-white head. Aroma of wheat, strawberry and yeast. Taste of strawberry, candy sugar and sweet malt. Sugary and syrupy with a diet cola like finish. A touch too sweet but overall drinkable.

Horrible. Taste like bad cold medicine. Big head, no wheat flavor and seems like corn syrup was added???

16 oz bottle. Poured a slightly hazy and very masculine orange-pink color. Head was two fingers high and white with decent retention. There wasn’t any lace. Aroma was of buttery pancakes, yeasty bread dough, and liquid strawberry flavored penicillin. It was cloyingly sweet on the tongue with a malt extracty note (not sure if this is even an extract beer). Imagine strawberry frosting mixed into strawberry soda with a splash of vanilla syrup. Pour that mixture onto a bowl of Franken Berry cereal and that’s what this beer tasted like. I wouldn’t recommend running out to grab one of these from you nearest retailer.

Strong aroma of strawberry. Very aromatic, smells very sweet. Hazy Peach colored with a vey thin small fizzy head that was pinkish white. Head remained very consistant in size till the end. Left a light lacing on the pint glass. Taste is a very sweet Strawberry bubblegum flavor. Was like drinking strawberry bubblegum. Medium body, oily texture with average carbonation. The finish is liike when you finish strawberry bubblegum, when the flavor is gone and you get that gum aftertaste. This beer would be great on a hot summer day! It goes down smooth, and if you like your beer sweet you would really like this. Its something different and while I wouldn’t drink it regularly or add it to my favorite rotation I would not hesitate to drink one again, especially when it is hot outside. A nice beer, a nice change of pace. Served at 36 degrees in a pint glass. For those who like traditional beer I would pass on this one. But, if you like to try new and different beer you might very well like this one.
