willisread (7331) - Detroit, Michigan, USA - DEC 31, 2023UPDATED: DEC 31, 2023 Backlog 12/20/2020: Bottle care of a friend. Thanks Jimmy! Pours a rusty reddish orange with a bit of off-white head. Big jammy raspberry aromas with light rhubarb. Plenty more raspberry on the palate with skin and seed present as well, but very fruit forward. Smooth with refreshing carbonation. Lingering raspberry on the finish.
lavaaaron (3607) - - AUG 24, 2021UPDATED: AUG 24, 2021 Bottle pour, deep ruby red. Raspberry aroma. If you pressed raspberries and then boiled them down to concentrate the flavor this is what you would get. Tart, lightly sweet. A delicious desert beer.
BeerdedDave (4658) - Beckley, West Virginia, USA - AUG 14, 2021UPDATED: AUG 14, 2021 reddish-brown color; tart raspbery aroma; great, just slightly tart raspberry flavor; great dry, oaky finish
hauxe (4012) - Butzbach, GERMANY - JUL 28, 2021UPDATED: JUL 29, 2021 Bottle thanks to Virby44. Auburn with a creamy head that lingers the duration. Aroma of berry jam, raspberries. Taste is tart rather than sour. There’s an underlying brown sugar sweetness that balances it out. That balance is the highlight. Medium bodied, moderate to mild carbonation. Nice heft. Still refreshing. Very good.
stevoj (16135) - Boise, Idaho, USA - JUN 13, 2021UPDATED: JUN 13, 2021 Taster at share. Light pinkish pour, flat. Aroma and taste are raspberry jam, full, sweet. Absolutely gorgeous.
ebarnes (263) - Beech Grove, Indiana, USA - MAY 27, 2021UPDATED: MAY 27, 2021 4 pack for the Indy 500 courtesy of my buddy Vin. Raspberry blasts out of the bottle as soon as the cap is cracked. Pours cloudy red with a pink, foamy head. The taste is as described. Tart, raspberries. Not terribly sweet. Lots of flavor.

rennat42 (5363) - Ravenna, Nebraska, USA - FEB 9, 2020UPDATED: FEB 9, 2020 Bottle.
A- Cherry, raspberry.
A- Dark red color, clear liquid, minimal head.
T- Raspberry jam, medium sweetness, mild tartness.
P- Medium body, average texture, average carbonation, slightly tart finish.
O- Clearly New Glarus doesn't make a bad fruit beer and this is absolutely no exception. This is what fruit beers should taste like. Got more cherry jam than raspberry on the nose. Only mildly tart and very candy like but not cloyingly sweet. The right balance! So many thanks for my wife's cousin getting this and sharing with me! I think Serendipity and Strawberry Rhubarb still might take the top crown for me but this is dang close. Just need to get that Belgian Red now!
