Samuel Smiths Organic Strawberry Fruit Beer

Brewed by Melbourn Brothers (Samuel Smith)
Style: Fruit Beer
Stamford, England

Bottled. A hazy amber beer with a thin off-white head. The aroma is sweet and dominated by strawberries. The flavor is sweet with tart notes of strawberries - a bit too artificial for me.

(Bottle 35,5 cl) Pours a slightly hazy amber golden with an off-white head. Distinct and fat strawberry aroma. Medium body, not much maltiness but again very distinct strawberry in the flavour without being overly sweet. The finish is dry. 030608

33 cL bottle. Pours hazy amber with a lacing off white head. Light spiced and strawberry aroma. Flavour is sweet strawberry. Subdued liqourice note to cut-off the sweet strawberry. Ends almost cloying strawberry flavoured finis.

Bottled at Petalax Beer Festival. Hazy amber, brief head. Buttery strawberry aroma. Sweet and very lively due to overcarbonation. The sticky flavour of ripe strawberries are backed by buttery malt. No bitterness. Good points for execution, but that’s also all the points it gets. The idea blows, and there is nothing enjoyable about it.

Bottle 33cl. @ home.
