(Bottle 35,5 cl) A raspberry-wheat beer from Louisiana! Oh yes, it had to come. Has the typical wheaty haze with some sediment. Orangey with a slight reddish tint and a good head. Quite dry and only a hint of sweetness from the fruit. Actualy quite refreshing.

From tap at Yard House in San Diego. Pours hazy deep orange with a small white head. Aroma is crisp orange and tangerine fruity. Mild citric base flavour, rather dry yet refreshing with a bitterness making the finish even more dry and crisp.

Bottled at Akkurat, Stockholm. Hazy pale amber, average head. Tart raspberry aroma. Dryish, light and clean. Though simple it’s drinkable and refreshing. No bitterness. A well made beer in a pointless style.

Bottled (from Cracked Kettle). Hazy golden colour, small white head. Aroma is raspberry and mild notes of paper. Flavour is berries, fruits and some wheat. Not very exciting.

opaque pink, fine thin white head, light sweet raspberry aroma that reaches your nose before you reach for the glass, light sweet flavor, well balanced between the raspberry and wheat characer, nicely refined over the years

Light amber; refreshing, but artificial raspberry character. Standard stuff.
