Very artificial weak beer. Like bad strawberry jelly. Very fake like. Clear sort of red color. Soda like. Thin head. Not much taste.

8.4oz bottle. I’m not exactly sure why I bought this one as I have never been a fan of fruity or sweet beers. This is no exception. I guess it is not really that bad for what it is though way to sweet for my tastes. Something in my brain cannot handle the beer-strawberry combo concept either. Wait, I know what this is like...wine coolers...yechh, I hate wine coolers. I’m pouring the rest of this one out.

bottle. pours a unique reddish-brown color, with a small off-white head. Sweet, artificial strawberry aroma. Flavor is also sweet-tart strawberry, artificial sweetener, and some wheat. Too sweet, nearly cloying. I guess this is pretty much what I expected.

Bottle poured a clear pale red with a small lingering pink head. Aromas of strawberry and light cookie. Palate was light bodied and crisp. Flavors of strawberry, light cookie and a hint of honey with a crisp lingering strawberry finish. Much better than I expected, not excessively sweet.

This a great beer for the queer guy in all of us, you get to tell your friends your a man cause your drinking beer but the girlie man in you gets to enjoy his strawberry juice. The beer pours a very cloudy brownish pink, the head its self is also a light pink. The smell reminded me of home made strawberry jam not that cheap ass generic Safeway crap. On the first sip I thought I was drinking pure strawberry puree it was thick and fizzy. The taste was very strawberry with some good maltiness in the background turning more tart the longer on my tung, my girlfriend even enjoyed this beer and said she could see her self drinking a whole one. Very good fruit beer will be trying again.

Früli Strawberry Beer is a hazy, reddish light brown beer with a small film of an off-white head that has decent lacing. It has a powerful strawberry aroma, like strawberry candy. It’s light bodied, papery and crisp with very fine carbonation. It’s sweet with flavors of strawberry candy, bread, maybe apples and some bitter coriander. It’s very unique but pretty artificial tasting.

250mL bottle. Slightly different label than that in the picture. Pours a murky ruby color with a smallish quartz head. Lots of juicy strawberries in the sweet aroma. Some orange juice, lemons, and wheatiness in the background. Nice medium body - manages to be both sparkling and just a bit syrupy. The taste is as equally sweet as the aroma. Loads of strawberries and creaminess upfront with some light wheat, oranges, and lemons at the end. Yet another underrated fruit beer.
