Gritty McDuffs Raspberry Wheat

Straw colour. Lots of raspberry syrup on the nose. Watery, with vile syrupiness. Bad even for a mailed-in raspberry brew.

Draught @ Freeport outlet. Billed as "Raspberry Light" and is a variation of the Sebago Light, not a wheat beer. Very clear. Raspberry soda children’s drink smell. All manner of fruitiness disappears in the flavors and ends with slight hop reminiscent of a generic light lager. Very thin, lacking any layers or complexity. Some grain flavors simple, but clean. Raspberry is almost an afterthought. Grandma beer.

Draught: Watery, weak flavor, and unexciting. Really light and boring. Give this one a miss.

Very Light Rasberry arome and flavors, light gold in color and just a little bitter at finsh, alittle tart but not lemony, not too sweet at all, refreshing but overall weak.

On tap at Auburn brewpub location. This is basically what appears to be their light beer with some raspberry flavors thrown in. It was a nice tangy raspberry which made it a little different than the other raspberry wheats i’ve had, although I’m still not a big fan of wheat beers, nor am i a fan of fruit beers. I’ve gotta say you should skip this one.

[on tap at brewery] Clear straw witha lasting flanel blanket that formed nice lacing. The aroma was of sweet raspberries and gentle malt. Watery, straw-like raspberry flavour with some unexpected hops bitterness. Light body, medium carbonation. Panty remover.
