Fruit beers can have an overpowering taste, But Rob Buckhaven has found three that buck the trend
1 Strawberry surprise
Früli Strawberry Beer (£1.61, Tesco) is like a strawberry smoothie with bags of attitude.
Blagger’s guide
The addition of 30 per cent strawberry purée gives this beer its celebrated fruity flavour.
2 Raisins rule
Cains Fine Raisin Beer (£1.62, Asda) has rich notes of sultanas dipped in caramel.
Blagger’s guide
This beer won the prestigious World’s Best Fruit Beer prize at the Annual World Beer Awards in 2007.
3 Pop a cherry
Liefmans Cuvée Brut (£3.29, Waitrose) brims with elegant cherry bubbles.
Blagger’s guide
This beer is slightly more expensive, as it is made by macerating whole fresh cherries.
