Strawberries with mildew, but taste good?

Hi,

I am growing some strawberries and I was worried the plants had powdery mildew. The leaves were curled up, although the plants are very tall and otherwise vigorous and healthy. I spayed with a milk solution, hoping that would help. The berries are developing well; they are large and turning red the ripe ones taste very good. However they look unsightly like they have a very thin layer of mildew. I think they had it before I spayed the milk solution.

Any ideas what this might be? I thought that powdery mildew caused the berries to taste moldy.

Thanks for your help!
