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.

Heavy white head and a golden body. Raspberry and citrus aroma, along with the flavor. A sharp taste that has heavy carbonation. Bittersweet ending.

Raspberry selzter water, seriously. This was nothing to this but a lot of fizzy raspberry tartness and the barest hints of wheat. Ah well.

The DM & Hotstuff vacation tour July 2005. This draft from Porters in Erie, PA poured a small sized head of foamy finely sized mostly lasting white colored bubbles that left behind an unnoted lacing. The body softly carbonated and golden brown in color. Its aroma contained notes of mild brown raspberries. Its mouth feel is initially very tingly with a lingering mellow palate. Its flavor contained mild off tasting raspberry notes. The flavor was not offensive, but off the mark none-the-less. It needed more raspberry character.

White head on a cloudy orange-yellow body. Strong raspberry aroma. Sweet raspberry flavor with malty undertones.

This poured red, but had no head. Good raspberry nose, I guess. But the taste was a watery attempt at a fruit brew.

Nice red color,small white head that faded quickly leaving nothing behind.The aroma was malty some caramel maybe and a very faint hint of raspberry.The flavor was nothing specila though,acidy on the pallate with a slight raspberry flavor and thin.Nothing special here but it was worth a try.I think i’d rather have a NG Raspberry Tart over this raspberry any day.

Poured a pale effervescent gold with ruby highlites and a small fizzy off-white head. Aroma is raspberries, a touch of skunkiness, and grassy hops (saaz?). Taste is clean, with bitter grass hops and a hint of raspberry... very little sweetness. Not much else to it; very bland otherwise in the flavor.
