Pete's Wicked Strawberry Blonde

Left at my house- a beer I would be embarrassed to buy.

Appearance- light yellowy orange with a weak white head.
Smell- strawberries of course, not much else.
Taste- not bad light strawberry flavor and weak malt and hops.
Mouthfeel- watery but not too sweet.

Overall- a girlie beer but its not that bad. Drink on a hot day.

Another retired review from Pete's, this was their most successful variant, second only to the flagship Wicked Ale.

Poured a light lemonade shandy like appearance, lacking clarity, this was one of the first beers that didn't look like "beer" in my youth as much as the standard yellow stuff at the time, it had a mild pink hue to it and a smaller head. The aroma had strawberry like presence coupled with some grain feels.

Taste was one of the sweetest beers I ever had at the time. Light blonde ale like base here. Pumped up carbonation it seemed relative to the lack of beercentric (non adjunct) ingredients. This was the first beer that took on the lady might dig it notion of beer. It was something that I could still drink if I had to, but was better off in the cooler as something for someone else, like the beginnings of what it felt like to be a beer DJ (without living in a basement).

Bottom line, this didn't impress as a fruit beer, taste or aroma, and given the notorious brewing problems with real strawberries, I doubt that is what was used.
