At the brewery, pours hazy dark straw with a sweet berry nose. The flavor is simple and sweet, but a synthetic syrup sweetness.

Soapy and sweet nose with soft berry notes. Very light on the palate again with mild soap.

Smells exactly like the tutti-frutti flavored fluoride treatment from the dentist’s office. That’s it. This might be ok in moderation, but this is overwhelming. Flavor improves somewhat, combining a light tartness with subdued bready notes, florality and a wan bitterness. Still not my cup of tea, or berries, but better than some others I’ve had of this ilk.

10 ounce sample consumed at the brewpub this past weekend. Aroma is full of very aromatic strawberries, cherries, and some raspberries. Pleasant aroma, although there are no "beer" aromas present, which is unfortunate. Mildly hazy copper color with a small, whitish head. Wow, quite tart and astringent to start with some strawberry and melon-like flavors present. A little bit of doughy maltiness comes through in the middle and finish. This is relatively simple, and a bit unique for a fruit beer.

Draft. Amber beer. This one just didn’t quite hit me right. It had a berry taste, but it was a bit of a pixie stix taste - fizzy, sugary, and artificial candy. Light berry aroma, some malt backing in the flavor, but it just didn’t do it for me.
