Dickinsonbeer (3434), Hoboken, New Jersey, USA Aug 28, 2006 The bartender gave me a pretty good sized free sample on one occasion to the porterhouse. Pour is a very murky cloudy bright pink with a nice lasting white head. Aroma is of pure strawberry puree, sweet, and actually pretty enticing. Flavor is sweet, fruity, strawberry jam, with a light tart finish. Nice relatively full body and pleasant- although I dont think I could have drank an entire pint. brewgirlca (57), Edmonton, Alberta, Canada Aug 21, 2006 Bottle. Have to consider that this is a "juiced" Belgian wit and not a lambic so cannot expect big sour flavours or horseblanket phenols. That said this is a pretty beer with a pale pink color, head has tinge of red that fades rather fast. Distinct berry note in nose. Flavour is clearly strawberry. It is too sweet - a bit of lactic sourness would have improved drinkability. Body is lite as per base style. Bit strange mix of sweet and lite. Easy drinking fruit beer with plenty of strawberry character, needs a touch of lactic complexity to take it to next level and to reflect the base style. anders37 (4516), Malmö, Sweden Aug 11, 2006 Bottle. Hazy pale reddish colour with an off-white head. Very sweet strawberry aroma. Sweet strawberry flavor with some maltiness. Sweet fruity strawberry finish. bluevegie (2169), Perth, Australia Aug 1, 2006 21/05/06 Porterhouse Central Dublin. One of their occassional once off-beers? Muddy pale pink body, sweet strawberry aroma and not too bad for a fruit beer. One is enough, strawberries and cloves, medium body, sweet but not sickly. TaktikMTL (2739), Montréal-Nord, Quebec, Canada Jul 17, 2006 Bouteille de 250 ml achetée à la LCBO (Kingston, ONT) lors d’un séjour au Charleston Lake Provincial Park. Arôme: Odeur de fraises et d’une épice que j’arrive pas à identifier. Apparence: La couleur est ambrée opaque (style jus de pomme à l’ancienne) avec une moyenne densité de bulle. Présence d’une faible col mousseux et d’une fine dentelle sur le verre. Saveur: Goût de fraise (ressemblant vaguement à un lambic), d’épices et de citron. Durée moyenne de l’arrière goût. Palette: Le corps est moyen avec une texture sirupeuse. Faible effervescence en bouche. Présence de fraises en arrière goût. (Rating #555) Quevillon (1518), Sainte-Thérèse, Quebec, Canada Jul 15, 2006 Bu à Tir Nan Og à Kingston (Ontario), 25 cl. Couleur de jus de pamplemousse, peu de collet. Arome de smoothy au fraise. Petit goût de fraise sûr. Très bon pour l’été. beergut111 (210), Toronto, Ontario, Canada Jun 19, 2006 Updated: Feb 21, 2007Bottle. Pours a cloudy/redish colour. Smells of strawberry. Taste is of Hoegaarden mixed with strawberry juice. A bit too sweet for my tastes. My wife loves it. Jukkabro (2981), Tampere, Finland May 15, 2006 Red colored, looks like a strawberry juice, little white head. Strong strawberry aroma with sweetness, nothing else comes up from there. Flavor is just like strawberry juice: very sweet with strong strawberries. Mildly sour aftertaste.
