Commercial Description:
Fruli is a high quality Belgian white beer blended with pure fruit juice. The strawberry juice compliments the zesty fruitiness of the wheat beer and the result is a natural, soft and refreshing drink that is simply delicious!

Not bad at all - don’t believe everything you read on ratebeer. Tiny pink head, red-grapefruit-pink shades in the body. Quite fresh strawberry aroma. Taste mushed strawberries but remember to leave out the yeast. Without it, it’s dry and fresh.

250 ml bottle, best before Nov. 2006. Very cloudy light red colour with golden highlights and a lasting forthy white head. Looks like a carbonated raspberry smoothie. Sweetened strawberry kiwi(?) aroma. Tastes like mashed strawberries that have been sitting in the fridge a bit too long, or the juice leftover from thawing frozen strawberries, (my mother picked a lot of strawberries when I was younger) with some light rotting bitterness to go with the strawberry flavour. Full and thick mouthfeel, lightly fizzy.

Hazy pale red in colour with a powerful nose of strawberry. Not much wheat beer quality to this one (no yeasty or wheaty flavors), just overpowering sweet strawberry cand flavorsy. Not completely offensive, but not really "beer like" enough for me.

Crushed with Jakebra. Great strawberry nose. Reminds me of the bubblegum I used to chew in little league. Flavor has some sweetness, but much more nast, and the finish goes on and gets incredibly stale. At least it’s in a small bottle and you can finish it really quickly.

Got this randomly one day at Rozi’s- not expecting much, and surprise! it’s in the 17th percentile. Aroma is that of strawberry jam and a little bit acidic. Flavor is really sweet, just like juice. There is almost no malt, hops or anything other than fruit noticeable. Yeah, I guess there is some malt in there? maybe? Just too fruity.

Bottle. Pours gold-strawberry red. Aroma is like a strawberry-lemonade smoothie. Mouthfeel is light, with crisp carbonation. This “beer” tastes exactly like a strawberry flavored soda. As such, it is actually quite refreshing. A hint of tart orange kicks in at the tail end, along with serious dryness. No trace of alcohol. Would this appeal to a fan of imperial stouts? No. But someone looking to get tipsy of soda? Sure.
