I am drinking this as I write.
It is good, the malt and hops are very soft and the carb is high, which accentuates the strawberry.
It is strange tasting strawberry without the sugar, it kinda puts it into a different realm of taste, more like a crisp salad veg, but with a fruity aroma.
The racking was an absolute pain in the a hole, I tried many times to syphon and ended up using the tap with a short piece of vinyl racking cane. There were some straberries that floated and some that sank, and many in-between. I bulk prime, so I left it there for a good while to settle, and bottling went smooth until the last one.
This beer is slightly pink, but totally opaque with pectin haze.
All in all I am stoked because it tastes very clean. I am unsure about the girl's thoughts though.
