Tart and sweet, great strawberry flavor - very enjoyable, could keep a few of these in the fridge all summer long.

Bottle @ WSF 2008. Clear light red with tiny off white head. Sweet with strawberries, malt and a mild tart end. Good mouthfeel.

Strong strawberry aroma as you open the bottle. The flavor is a tart strawberry. Smooth and tasty.

Bottle. Pours a orange/pink color with a light pink head and has some spotty lacing. Fruity and sweet aroma of strawberries. Flavor is fairly sweet with strawberries and has a faint sour note with a tart and dry finish

Pours a deep copper with beige off-white head. Fruity aroma heavy on the strawberries. Sweet taste. A little too sweet for my liking

35.5 cL bottle. Pours hazy orange to redish with a lacing faint pink to white head. Artificial strawberry aroma. Sweet flavour with a distinct strawberry flavour. Somewhat artificial finish with a distinct sweetness. Candy pop in a bottle yet enjoyable.

The Melbourn beers use lambic yeasts, so have qualities similar to lambic yet are fruit beers. Smooth, delicious. Fine champagne-like lively carbonation. Sweet-tart strawberry flavor with hardly any beer characteristics. Clean finish. Melbourn has been a favorite of mine for many years, so I will be sad to see these brews disappear. The Melbourn brews are easy to fall in love with, even for non-beer drinkers!

Pinkish orange, hazy, big frothy pink-tinged head. It actually looks very good! Aroma is strawberry jam with a faint mustiness. Big natural tasting strawberry juice flavour (i.e. not artificial or candyish) with a musty undertone, and just a hint of sour tartness in the finish. I had this with bison steaks that were heavily marinated in crushed pepper, and I think the pairing really brought out the best in the beer.
