Pours a ruby hue with a nice creme head that falls to nothing in a short amount of time. Nose is very fruity, big surprise. Almost seems to be a bit of a cotton candy edge to it as well. Nice smooth levels of taspberries are here. They don’t overpower or kill the palate. A sour edge kind of kicks in on the back side, but nothing that wrecks the experience. A smooth level of carbonation hits you on this. It’s a nice fruit beer. For my personal taste, it could be a bit sweeter, but overall I have to say that it is fairly nice.

Dark reddish brown in color. Very nice head, about an inch and a half, on the pour. Smell is raspberries, some vinous qualities, and some acidic notes as well.
It has a good mouthfeel. But there is a slight metallic flavor in the taste. Some very weak raspberry and hints of cherries. If it was bigger and more tart it would be better. This comes across very watered down.

This is not a lambic. Even with it being raspberry, I did not care for it. Too much like drinking a cereal.

Very distinct raspberry aroma and taste. Decent for what it is, but nothing to write home about... pinkish brown color, somewhat sweet, definitely is all raspberry...

[bottle] Dark red color, hazy, with a pink head. Very candy fruit like, raspberry aroma. Flavors are juicy, candy fruit, very sweet. Finishes somewhat alcoholic, with some strong fusels.

Bottle, 6%. From a distance the raspberry aroma is nice, but up close there is some plastic. Hazy red colour. Raspberry flavour, some phenol. Distinct liquorice, nice enough, but not with raspberry. Berry pit bitterness, tolerable.
