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!

250 ml bottle. Cloudy reddish brown colour. Medium-sized reddish white head. Fresh sweet strawberry aroma with a lemony background. Initial sweet flavour from strawberries, then a more acidic refreshing fruity character. A bit sugary sensation overall. Feels a little like strawberry juice in a glass. A little too sweet.

Holy fuck . Like some diet frozen yogut that was popular in 1989. I was only 8 years old in 1989 but I’m still sure i’m correct. The aroma smells like dieing strawberry . Mr Generic is Fruli .Fruli is so so sweet ..and artifical. Jesus Christ. I think I’m having a heart attack.

250 mL bottle from LCBO. Strong strawberry aroma, definitely real strawberry, not a fake syrup. Slightly rotted scent. Deep, dark orange pink color, with a lasting, strikingly pale rose head. Good lacing. Flavor very sweet, very fruity, very carbonated. Washes everything else out. But overall, an enjoyable beverage. Not sure it’s fair to call it beer though...

Had in a 250 mL bottle at bottlescrew Bills, calgary, AB. Pours a bright amber colour which is slightly hazy and has a thin head. Aroma is of strawberry flavoured candy. Even before my first taste, i expected this to be more of a cooler or even a soda than beer. I was correct. The "beer" (if you can call it one) has an overly sweet flavour of artificial strawberry flavour. Overcarbonation attempts to make up for the less than desirable flavour of this "beer". After all of this, this is still a fairly good "beverage" that would be perfect on an insatiably hot day or by a pool.

reddish orange hazy, with minimal head. Red, Aroma is light wheat, lightly sour tart strawberry. Flavor is similar, malt, wheat, a lot of strawberry syrup. Really mediocre.
