Enjoyed at the brewpub via draft in a handled pub glass. The beer pours a light to nearly medium golden color, with some cloudyness and a moderate white head. The aroma brings at first some subtle notes of strawberries, along with some pilsner- (or perhaps American 2-row) derived grainyness. The palate is a nice combination of the fruit and the central characteristics of an American blonde ale; showing fruit up front, followed by a mellow note of malt and a clean, if short, finish. Overall, the beer does a nice job of retaining "beer-like" characteristics, but falls short of great fruit beers.

Ever so slightly pinkish but yellow for the most part, just like a strawberry blond! Cloudy like an unfiltered wheat. Thin head with some strawberries in the aroma. However, it is not overwhelmingly fruity. Smells good! In the taste there is some berry or fruit something but it is difficult to identify if it is strawberries or not. Has a mild bitterness that builds on the palate during the session. Typical fruit beer. Not sweet, comes across like a lager. I wonder if Madame Berry actually dyes her hair?
