Strawberry
Wachusett Brewing Company

Poured from a can into a pint glass
Appearance- the brew pours a golden amber color with a small head of fizzy white foam. The head fades rather fast, leaving a light level of foamy lace on the sides of the glass.
Smell – The aroma is strong of a wheat bread and strawberry smell mixed with notes of grass and hay. Along with these comes some light yeast and a touch of mixed berry.
Taste – The taste begins with a wheat and very strawberry forward flavor, with the strawberry being not overly sweet, but having a rather nice more authentic taste. These tastes are the dominant throughout remaining rather strong. Some other light flavors of a grassy nature, some grain, and a bit of hay develop as well, rounding out the taste and leaving one with a rather easy natured strawberry taste to linger on the tongue.
Mouthfeel – The body of the brew was light and thin with a higher carbonation level. For the tasty, abv. And tastes, the feel was well done and made for an easy sipper.
Overall – A rather easy drinking strawberry brew. Not overly sweet, but quite balanced for a strawberry wheat.

 

Draft at game on in Fitchburg

Frothy creamy head with good retention, soapy lacing, mostly clear slight hazy tan color

Nose erupts with strawberry, a bit artificial but also like the frozen ones you get for cake or ice cream toppings, a bit of pale malt and general pale ale

Taste starts more like a mild blonde ale, light grain blonde malts, cereal grain, hint of hop bitterness, fair strawberry again like an ice cream frozen strawberry topping or maybe freeze dried strawberry ice cream flavor, not much else, semi sweet sticky finish

Mouth is med to lighter bod, med prickly carb

Overall OK but not great, pretty boring and strawberry flavor didn't give me the fresh berry flavor I hoped for
