Was on tap half off night. Smelled like perfume and tasted like it as well, artificial tasting. Also tastes sweet, with no hints of beer flavor. Aftertaste was wierd not that good. Maybe an OK beer for some.

My impression is that this is what non-beer drinkers drink on half-off night at Harpers. Raspberry dominates the flavor in a way that makes the beer unenjoyable. I appreciate amazing beers, but still enjoy drinking lower quality beer. I can’t drink this one though. I’d rather drink 5 Busch Lights for the price of one Harper’s Raspberry Wheat.

i guess i liked this one a bit more than the others...cloudy-orange body with small white head..aroma of sweet raspberry and light wheat..flavor is the same with added bread and biscuit...somewhat artificial, but not bad overall

Hazy orange pour with a thin white head. Strong aroma and flavor of boring, artificial raspberries. The body is light and creamy. Boring.

Very sweet. Raspberry taste was the overwhelming taste. More of a candy beer, less of a wheat beer. It could have been better if the berry flavor were less dominating.
