Van Diest Früli Strawberry Beer

Brewed by Brouwerij Huyghe
Style: Fruit Beer
Melle, Belgium

Light red coloured beer with some average carbonation and an average pink head. Sweet strawberry fruity aroma with some herby touches. Medium palate. Finish is sweet fruity, little candy dry strawberry hints. Medium one.

Bottle. Pours amber with a white head. Very sweet aroma, like strawberry jam. The flavor is also sweet, like candy sugar, not just strawberry, but cranberry and apple. Yeah it’s a bit overly sweet, but it’s pretty tasty.

(draft) Pink head atop dark pink lemonade body, nice lacing. Aroma is sweet strawberry. Taste is moderately sweet, strawberry, some cream. Smooth/creamy medium body. Quite tasty for what it is.

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.
