Eyedrinkale (3102), Beer Town, New York, USA Aug 31, 2004 Sampled at Stoudts Brewfest. Almost gold color with fair sized head. Aroma is light and sweet banana with faint pepper. Not as much rasberry as I was expecting and that was a good sign. The taste is a bit tart of sour rasberries and light straw. Not disguisting but I wouldn’t want 12 oz of this either.
mike5203 (33), Wilkes Barre, Pennsylvania, USA Aug 22, 2008 great wheat beer, smell of raspberrys is not overwhelming, nor is the flavor. It is slightly sweet, but not too much. Nice summer beer riversideAK (1570), Shoreline, Washington, USA Aug 21, 2008 Gold cloudy pour with a decent head. Aromas of raspberry and wheat malt. Flavor is light with notes of raspberry seltzer and cereal grains. Light and unobtrusive. fata2683 (86), APO, New York, USA Aug 21, 2008 This smelled and looked really good. Cloudy, rasberry’s and yeast....but this dissapointed it’s too sweet which I thought with the rasberry’s being fresh and not artificial it would be sour and not sweet, but it was and it masks what may be a good wheat underneath. FlssmrBrewAlum (197), South Chicago Suburbs, Illinois, USA Aug 17, 2008 12 oz. bottle courtesy of another friend at a tasting. Several fruit beers, eh? This bad boy looked really good on pour, cloudy muted gold color with a decent head that unfortunately dissipates quickly. Lighter raspberry aromas that are light upon taste and mour sour than sweet (Always a plus). Some wheaty malt characteristics that are very enjoyable. More refreshing and lighter bodied than the other offering I had, but less taste and character. A decent fruit beer that I’d drink again. Sparky27 (516), Phoenix, Arizona, USA Aug 16, 2008 12oz bottle. Pours a cloudy orange with 2 finger off-white head. Nose is mainly sweet wheat with some raspberries in the background. Taste is malt and wheat with raspberries in the finish. Medium mouth feel. I’ve put off trying this beer as I thought it would be too sweet and fruity, but the raspberry flavor complement the taste rather than dominates. That being said, it’s still not that great but better than I thought it would be.
