On tap. Raspberry red, cloudy, thin pink head leaving substantial sheets of lace and later disappearing to a ring, but still leaving lace. Aroma is strongly of raspberries. Body is medium, foamy carbonation, dry. Flavor is sweet raspberries, light sour finish like unripened raspberries, thoroughly crisp and refreshing. I was not looking forward to this beer, but it’s dry, crisp, like cider, refreshing, great mouth...nice beer! Best of GB of 3 so far, by far.
