Clipper City Oxford Organic Raspberry Wheat

Brewed by Clipper City Brewing Co.
Style: Fruit Beer
Baltimore, Maryland USA

12 oz bottle poured slightly hazy and light brown with a small white head. big aroma of raspberries that was artificial. very sour taste. artificial raspberry flavor with very little body. slightly syrupy as well. funky aftertaste. not sure about this one. they used to be decent before going organic.

very nice appearance and nose, but very mild flavor with no discernible malt but a sourish raspberry flavor. not good

Uh yeah.. not sure why I bought this one. I didnt know what it was, and since I am running out of beer to buy locally that I havent had (except for all of the English beers), I figured what the hell. It was only a dollar. When I went to open it, I noticed the ’clipper city’ on the cap and thought to myself: "oh shit". Those guys brew alot of beers, and not many of them are good with the exception of hop3 (that shit is great!), but this beer falls into the not so good category. Bland, not sour, raspberry flavors which are fake tasting. Not a really good beer, not much to say about it either.

on tap-pours a thin white head and gold color. Aroma is mild raspberry, honey. Taste is raspberry, honey, wheat, secondary continental hops (perle).

(Bottle (labelled as "Oxford Organic Raspberry Wheat", best before 9/08, from 1828 Vintage House) Pours lightly reddish light amber, cloudier on last pour. Tall, meringue-like white head. Strong initial aroma of fresh berries but as head recedes it turns sourish and wheaty. Mouthfeel a little thin, light soda effervescence, light and fairly smooth. Dabs and patches of weepy broken lacing. Flavor is lightly wheaty with a sourish tang, notes of raspberry but kind of lost behind the sourish wheat. Not really one of the better-tasting fruit or wheat beers I’ve had.

bottle. raspberry is well done. its definitly dominant but not too acidic or artificial tasting. the gritty wheat flavor provides a nice background. the berries might wear on me after a while but the tastes i had were very tasty. underrated - definitely deserves to be in the 3’s.

Bottle. Pours a hazy amber hue with an average frothy white head that mostly lasted with fair lacing. Good wheat and rasberry aroma. Medium body with soft carbonation. Medium well balanced fruity flavor with a good sweet finish of moderate duration. Good soft drinkable beer.

aroma is wheaty, hints of raspberry. poured redish color with white head. flavor is refreshing spritzy with some raspberry and wheat. easy drinking, summer time fruit beer. nothing complex, but it is what it is type of beer. goes over well with the women I’m sure while still not being a malternative.
