not much to say about this one. it tastes like a watered down raspberry lambic. nothing special at all but at the same time not offensive. i suppose girls would like this.

Recommended if you like fruit beers, definitely steer clear if you don’t. Light, refreshing wheat and raspberry flavors. Easy to drink and generally a crowd pleaser.

Good tasting fruit beer if that is your thing. Aroma of raspberries is not too strong. Cloudy, light-orange color. Strong raspberry taste with a slight alcohol taste. Carbonation is present in taste.

Bottle. A hazy light amber color body with a small frothy off white head , leaving little lacing , medium carbonation . Aroma is slightyl malty with light notes of raspberry and a hint of straw . Flavor is quite subtle , mostly sweet with a light berry flavor , a little wheat tang , no bitterness , a berry finish , light body with a watery mouthfeel . Quite sessionable but lacks any real flavor or aroma that I am looking for , a fun try though .

A pretty good version of a fruit flavored American Wheat. Sweet blueberry aroma with a touch of malty bread. Very clean, with a great hint of berryness for a very refreshing and different beer. Hint of bananas surround the glass. Definately worth a try.

Bottle. This should have been called skunk berry beer. This was not a very good beer. I believe someone needs to go back to the drawing board.

Serving: 12 oz. bottle. Appearance: Pour a cloudy, light orange color with a small, foamy, white head. The head is gone pretty quickly. Aroma: Wheat, grain, and a bit of berry in the nose. Fairly light. Flavor: Light as well unfortunately. A bit of graininess, and some raspberry but a bit on the artificial side. Palate: Medium-high carbonation with a light mouthfeel and a short finish. Overall: This one lacks flavor and identity. Good for those girls that aren’t into craft beer. Not recommended.
