Avancé: 8.0 – It’s a bit weird to go from a sour that’s aged as that certainly has an aspect here, giving this a sort of graham cracker like feeling, and of course that’s complemented by the heavy strawberry flavoring. The result is like almost cheesecake like but w/o the cream and also it’s a beer. One does wonder if they made it with lactaid if it could pull off such a feat, but as is it’s a decidedly delicious and unique beer nonetheless.

Summer Jam: 7.5 – There is a bit of that wheat and overall pale ale flavor here, but let’s be real. This is a punch in the face of strawberries. Other strawberry beers often taste like strawberries, but in the way that you can tell, oh that’s how the berry has changed the taste of the beer. This? This taste like fucken strawberries, and we love it.

Strawberry Rebus: 6.0 – There’s just a tad too little strawberry in this. It’s overall a nice sour ale, not too crazy or tart, but overall you wish that either there was another aspect to the strawberries here or lean into it all the way.
