Mash House Strawberry Ale

Pink like pink ginger ale. Slight fruit aroma. Nice flavor but there is really nothing special about it.

clear pink, headless, light fruity aroma, nice dry strawberry flavor, light bitter finish, good strawberry character without being sweet but needs a more interesting base beer

on tap-pours a light pink head and bright pink color. Aroma is strawberry. Taste is fake strawberry, sweet grain.

From notes 7/14/03: Pours a bright pink. The beer...is pink. Fitting for the strawberry feel, I suppose. Very clear. No head. Bubbles and carbonation to no end. Reminiscent of soda pop. Aromas are very strong with strawberry, and little else. The taste was pure unadulterated strawberry. Is this a beer or a wine cooler? Little beer-y characteristics to this at all. I felt like I was drinking a pink Zima or something. I’m sure the brewers found this interesting and a different kick. A novel menu item. But I fear their weekly fruit beer will not be a stand-by for me in the future.

Draught at the brewpub. Clear orange-pink with thin white head. Candyish strawberry nose reminiscent of a strawberry scented candle. Somewhat sweet with cream and strawberry flavors like a strawberry creamsicle.

Pinky-red. Wine cooler aroma. Interesting buttered strawberry cream flavour. Not my cup of tea.
