Tastes like...strawberry

Hah! Just kidding, some IGB humor there!
For new readers of IGB Beer Reviews, Sam Adams has a home brewing contest called Longshot, each year where both employees and the general public can enter. The winners get their beer brewed and bottled by Sam Adams and distributed in six packs. This is one of this year's winners.
Despite my usual stance on fruit flavored beers, the strawberry doesn't really detract from the beeriness of the beer. Since it's a lager, the fruit flavoring isn't competing with any of the flavors and aromas that might be produced in an ale. It's crisp, it's clear, it's a great summer beer...too bad it's a limited edition.
