Van Diest Früli Strawberry Beer

Bottle. From notes. Reddish colored. Aroma is strawberry as well as taste. Nothing else really comes out. Barely a beer. Rating #66

Pours a funky orange/pink with no head. Aroma is really sweet, strawberry candy, and a little citrus. As bas as it smells, it does taste ok. Very sweet strawberry with some coriander and citrus and some wheat. Palate reminds me of a cooler, little harsh bubbles and cloyingly sweet.

Pours a pinkish red color with a small foamy light pink head. Aroma is strawberry candy, smells like GNC strawberry protein hahaha. Initial taste is like a rocking boat, side to side strawberry candy then weird funky sweetness. Mid palate to finish fades very quickly with light berries on the finish and very dry. Flavor is one dimensional and clawing sweet. Below average palate duration. Average head retention. Body is light.

Hazy ruddy, light umber color with a diminished pink head. Candy and strawberry jam scents. A few other over-ripe berries in the nose as well, but certainly a fruit beer. Sweet perfumy strawberry and sugary candi. Light acidity in the linger, but the rest is just a goopy strawberry mess.

250ml bottle from the LCBO. Im not exactly sure why I decided to buy this estrogen filled beer. Pours a pretty pink with strong strawberry flavors. Very little alcohol. No reason to buy this unless your trying to get your girlfriend drunk.

Bouteille de 250 ml. La bière est de couleur rosée-orangée et possède un col de mousse modeste. Au nez on découvre des arômes de jujubes aux fraises, de sirop sucré et d’orange. En bouche le corps est moyen avec une effervescence moyenne. On goûte des saveurs de sirop aux fraises, de sucre, de levure et d’orange avec une légère âcretée. Pas mon style.

Pinkish, grapefruit colored ale with a bubbly, quickly diminishing white foam. Awful aroma reminds me of a protein smoothie, with notes of strawberry and tangerine. Way too sweet, one dimensional. No real reason for this beer to exist. Hardly any alcohol. Expensive. A better alternative is a cocktail of some kind, or a vitamin water. Huyghe sucks.

There’s no "Van Diest" on the bottle that I picked up at the Binny’s in Orland Park, IL. It only mentions Huyghe. Not a bad drink, but it’s all about fruit and little else. It pours a hazy off-red body with a smallish head tinted with pink. The aroma is strawberries, maybe a little candied. The flavor is fresh strawberries, but the carbonation seems to cut the sweetness a tad. Okay, but I probably won’t be repeating this.
