Commercial Description:
In Belgium, one of the world’s greatest brewing regions, the tradition of blending fruit with beer has achieved cult status. We decided to create an American interpretation that we present as Oxford Raspberry. The beer is light and refreshing and finished with real raspberries giving it a fruity aroma, and quenching tartness.

Nice raspberry aroma on a plain old generic beer. Clear golden with minimal white head, taste is tired and seltzery. $2/12oz

I tend to really dislike fruity beers (esp. with just "fruit flavor" added -- just don’t do that). This one was tolerable for me. Very mild raspberry flavor, but well-balanced taste of a decent pale ale. Overall, not bad.

Pours peach-orange brick into the glass with a weak head and trace lacing. The nose is of subdued raspberry jam. Flavors of raspberry seltzer and tart citrus. The mouthfeel is thin, as it seems a bit overcarbonated. The mouthfeel is of (naturally flavored) seltzer water. Just "so-so" overall.

Pours a pinkish, yellow with a decent enough head. Aroma is like sticking your nose in a jar of raspberry perserves. Taste is raspberry with a nice tartness but there is no mistaking this in not the NG brew. The carbonation is prickly, maybe more than it needs to be. Although the berries taste fresh enough and it’s summer, this stuff doubltfully would be a decnt chick beer, unless she was a pure Coors Light drinker.

Raspberry jam and malt vinegar aroma. Pinky clear gold, lacing head. Lousy label. Wheaties and raspberry flavor - moderately sweet. Quick fruity-floral finish. Nothing much going on here.

12 oz bottle, appearance is ok. Smells like raspberries and stinky feet. Tastes more like stinky feet then it smells. Up there with the worst beer I have ever had. Have to pan this one.. awful.

Clear, rosy pinkish hued appearance, slim, soon-gone whitish head. Big sweetness in the nose, though well tempered, large raspberry, sweeter than sour, fruity, fruity, fruity... On tongue and in the mouth...it’s a spritzy wine cooler-like affair, that’s for sure...large fruit, big carbonation, and then it’s gone. Not enough body, not enough texture, not enough beer. A "girly" type brew ( apologies to real beer loving women) ...and entirely forgettable. Bleh. Bluh. Bli.

Samlpe at ODBF. Golden colored. Small white head. Fruity raspberry aroma. No wheat flavor. Syrupy overdone raspberry flavor. Spritzy and tart, not the best.
