So Icyyy - Strawberry Cranberry Push Pop
Barrel Culture Brewing and Blending

 

 

Received in a trade and shared with JLindros.

A - Poured into a Kate the Great tulip a nice hazy light strawberry hue with a thin white head that fades to leave light wisps and a thin halo.

S - Aromas of big sweet strawberries, fresh berries, little strawberry wine like. Seedy berries, little tartness.

T - Taste is similar to the nose with nice bright strawberries and really tart cranberry juice. Nice juicy sweet berries, little jammy. Finish is lingering terms.

M - Mouthfeel is lightly carbonated, bright, almost too much. But it's not flemmy.

O - Overall this was a very solid strawberry beer with excellent cranberry tartness.

Serving Type: bottle

Thanks to rudzud
Light fizzy head retains fairly well, very hazy pinkish watermelon color

Nose some fresh strawberry, but more like soft fermented strawberry, a little tart cranberry but barely, a little wild funk and yeasty notes, a little sour lacto creamy thing, little strawberry sherbet, a little pop of cranberry later as it warms, a little seed like tannin too

TAste starts very tart, sour strawberry wine, a bit of fresh strawberry and jam notes, touch of strawberry sherbet, mild flemmy acidic, actually fairly acidic bite, some cranberry mostly tartness on the back end, and tons of lingering flemmy tart cranberry juice on the finish, juicy, little bready yeasty note late, flemmy acidity, little seed tannin

Mouth is med bod, nice fizzy carb, plenty of acidity and a bit flemmy

Overall pretty nice, but wish the cranberry was more on the nose but surprised how well it came out on the taste.

 

Bottle. White head. Grapefruit color.

The strawberries and cranberries show a lot. It is lighter than other fruits. Medicinal and brett funk. Sour and tart with some acidity.

The boysenberry I had early was a bit better but this was fun to try.
