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.

Yellow with hints of pink and topped with a decent white head, this ale has an aroma of fresh raspberries. A bit of wheat appears in the flavor, and the berries take a turn for the tart. Drinkable, but like so many other fruited wheat ales.

Pour is a red with a large pink head. Aroma is of faint raspberrys and nothing else. Shoulden’t a fruit beer punch you in the face with the fruit aroma? Not so much here. Flavor is artificial raspberry and again not much else. Pretty poor.

Pours clear amber with a large whitish head and dancing carbonation. The aroma is a bit papery with dry raspberries. The typical wheat richness is not there and it is lightly medicinal. Medium / thin body with semi-soft carbonation. The taste is dry like the aroma. The raspberries don’t taste bad, but it doesn’t taste authentic either. There is some light spice on the finish. Not a horrible beer, but I don’t need it again.

The aroma has some raspberries but not a lot. It also has wheat and funky fruit. The appearance is reddish gold with a decent head. The flavor is like the aroma and finishes with both raspberry and wheat. The palate is thin but overall it’s good.

Growler. I found this at Shoreline and I had been passing this by for a while until I had the Southampton version last week. It pours well into an orange/red hue with a good head . The aroma invites the first taste, which reminds me of Raspberry puree with a light beer in the background. Not powerful, but it is good.

12 oz bottle, best by Oct. 07. Clear, pink tinged gold beer with a fluffy white head. Nose is yeasty wheat with light raspberry.Mildly tart wheat with a very small raspberry twist.Crisp finish, a bit of grass. Not bad, but pretty weak and uninteresting.
