Van Diest Früli Strawberry Beer

250ml bottle from Tesco. Looks like a strawberry milkshake. Very sweet strawberry aroma matched by the taste. Quite refreshing if drunk almost at freezing but if warm it’s extremely cloying.

Hazy pink body with almost no head despite a vigorous pour. Smells very artificial, like strawberry candy and cough syrup mixed together. Also tastes reminiscent of cough medicine with some wheat thrown in for good measure. The only highlight is the palate, light, slightly fizzy, and refreshing. Truly awful.

From bottle and tap, I love this beer. So light and refreshing with a lovely fruity palate.

From bottle. Wow, very impressive aroma of fresh strawberries, almost as if they have been just picked and juiced. Cloudy pinkish, red in colour with a thin lace. Sweet strawberry flavour, not strong alcohol or even hops notes with the beer. More like a fruit juice. Pleasant fruit beer, a little on the sweet side. Will keep the Mrs happy whilst I sample some more beers to my liking.

Bottle. Pours murky red with a medium creamy white head. Sweet strawberry aroma. Creamy mouthfeel. Sweet strawberry flavour that stays in your mouth for a long time.

Had on tap. Firstly the price put me off £3.90! but what about the beer? It tasted different and unusual and very much of strawberries, fizzy strawberries, somehow i just wonder how naturally the strawberries are, as they say its pure fruit juice i’ll give them a good rating.

250 ml bottle. Pours a clear reddish gold with red-white head. Nose is basically pure, sweet strawberry. Taste is like sweet strawberry juice. Practically like it’s not beer. Really needs something to dial down the sweetness. Very lively carbonation. Thinnish body. Not going to be rushing out for another.
