Color:Gold
From batch number 2. Bottled 2/16/2017. Number of cases: 200. Sent from my cousin in Cali.
Pours (crystal) clear but with a slight red tint making a pale gold beer look gold. A couple of fingers of snow white foam covers. Good retention. Lacing throughout.
Aroma of perfumed strawberries mix with acidity. Sweet notes blend nicely with a big oak backbone. Earthy, wild funk.
Taste is sweet up front that is overwhelmed quickly by acidity. Lingering oak and acid. Strawberries are hard to find in the taste.
Carbonation is big here and fine. Body is medium, maybe. Can't believe there is much residual sugar.
The oak really comes through in this beer, which is something I always appreciate. I have to admit that strawberries are not my favorite but are well done in the aroma, I wish they would come through more on the palate. Enjoy!
