Has anyone tried Barlean's fish/flax oil?

I've been trying to figure out a way to get my Omega 3's in liquid form, and yesterday my local organic market had a special on Barlean's fish oil (strawberry banana smoothie flavor) and flax oil (lemon zest flavor). They were both so good that I bought one of each and I'm curious whether anyone else has tried them. They almost seem too good to be true, but the brand gets good ratings online (and from the owner of the market) so I may have finally figured out how to get it in.

I have tried both flavors, and they taste pretty good. They are also more economical, if you compare how many capsules you would have to take for an equivalent dose.

I like regular Barlean's flax oil, actually I like it on cottage cheese--gives it a nutty flavor. I haven't tried the flavors you mention. For fish oil, I buy Carlson's lemon flavor in liquid form.
