Purchased a bottle of this beer at the brewery a couple months ago.
Poured into a tulip glass. A pinkish brown color with wth an excellent white effervescent head and beautiful curtain lacing. Distinct smell an taste of strawberry, along with raspberry and a bit of pears. Tart and funky but pleasantly so. Woodsy and rustic but it goes down so smoothly. I will look forward to my next bottle!

Bottle at share. Medium golden with a pinkish hue, small airy head. Gentle fruity aroma, some of the tartness comes through. Tartness is sublime, as is the sweetness. Flies under the radar. Tastes fantastic.

A 1 pint 0.9 fl. oz. bottle, Blend 5, bottled in May 2018. Poured into a 3 Fonteinen stemmed glass.
Appearance: A clear golden orange colour (from a careful pour) with a one finger white head that dissipated quite quickly while leaving some nice lacing.
Aroma: Tart, strawberry, oak, with some light funk and a splash of lemon.
Taste: Sour, tart, strawberry, vanilla cream, oak, with a touch of lemon and funk.
Mouthfeel: Dry, light to medium bodied with moderate carbonation.
Overall: I love strawberries, but strawberries in beer hasn’t really worked for me at all. This is the one exception so far though as the strawberries come through nicely and provide a nice balance with the sourness and light funk.

Pours a bright and bubbly pink with a thin pink cap. Settles into thin collar. Mostly clear with a careful pour.
Aroma is bright and fresh strawberries. A mix of earthy ripe flesh and hint of unripened strawberry tartness.
Flavor is layers of strawberry juice and flesh. Hint of citrus in the tartness and light oaky earth.
Moderate carbonation and clean, fairly light body.
A great use of delicate strawberry flavor. Melds nicely with the base brew and barrel.
