Hurricane Reef Raspberry Wheat Ale

Great smell and clear, pink color (darker than most wheat beers), but the flavor is a little murky. Some good fruitiness, but still something is unclean in it. Better than expected, tho,. Bottle at Whole Foods, Miami Beach.

12 oz bottle via Mys Swap 40 (thanks daknole!)Pours a clear copper with a small head. Nose is raspberry puree. Taste is all cyrstal malts and raspberr sherbet with some granny smith apples. No detectable hops. Body is medium, carbonation is moderate. A decent summer fruit beer i guess.

Brought up from Florida from my friend Kayla: Poured a clear orange colour with a little white head. Aroma was annoyingly fruity. Almost fake berry-ish notes. Potpourri air freshener and fruit loops. Taste was terrible. Thin and super sweet. Reminded me of the Liene’s Berrywiess except 10 times worse. Bleh!

12oz bottle. Light copper color, big bubbly white head. Aroma of raspberry spritzer and light barley malt extract. Flavor of raspberry essence dish soap. Light bodied with a refreshing wheat ale body ruined by chemical extract. Juice would make this more enjoyable on my palate. Extract leaves a film on my tongue. 26 nov 08

Sampled at 2008 Sunfest. Tastes pink, smells like mud, looks amber and has a seed finish on the end.

Bottle from TWSP. Pours dark straw with off-white head. Nose is big raspberry, some hoppy notes. Tastes of freshly picked raspberries, hopcitrus, smooth and refreshing.

Good raspberry flavor. Lightly carbonated, and light red color. Good palate. Some wheat. This isn’t a great beer, but on a warm day, it isn’t bad at all.

Sampled from 12-oz bottle supplied by joebrew. Pours a semi-hazy golden blonde colored brew with an average sized off-white head that slowly dissipates. Aroma of golden grain and wheat malt with a hint of red berries. Taste is light to medium bodied, with flavors of multi-grain malt with wheat, red raspberries and a hint of flowery hops. Finish is slightly tart that quickly disappears.
