Mad Fox Strawberry Blond

Jo and I visited DC this past weekend and visited the Mad Fox brewpub in Falls Church, VA as part of that trip. The trip to the brewery was really great, but I haven't quite gotten around to writing about it yet. Instead, I'll start with the growler we got, their Strawberry Blond.

It had one of the most interesting aromas I've ever smelled in a blond. Very musty, mixed with fermenting strawberries. The flavors followed the nose with the strawberry notes being present, but very mild and the interesting mustiness. I'm having a real difficult time describing it unfortunately. Lets just say it was tasty, refreshing and the fruit was pretty much the perfect sweetness without being syrupy or overpowering.
