I remember enjoying this one thouroughly. The carbonation and rasperry were strong. Definately drinkable, If you like raspberries this is the beer for you.

Very interesting. Very good beer to have with a meal. I can only drink it on occasion though. It is best in small doses.

Tasting of yeast and berry, this bev is frish and crispy. Drink up, lads! Reminiscent of a Berliner Weisse. Under-rated here, though a bit too watery.

Interesting. Tastes too much like grape soda. Not really much beer flavor at all. It would have been better if they had brewed it with the fruit instead of adding the juice after it was brewed. Reasonably refreshing. Not too bad, just tastes like juice.

12 oz bottle. Body is dark, hazy red. Aroma is extreme berries. Taste is overwhelmed with berry. A bit overdone.

Funky glowing purple-orange color with an enormous, but receding, light red head. Rasberry aroma. Light carbonation. This brew is incredibly tart and you notice it immediately. More berry flavor and a little bit of sour weirdness in the finish. Dry finish, quick. Doesn’t seem horribly artificial, but it obviously is. Really not very good at all.

Bottle. Sweet wheat notes on the nose with lots of sweet (if not cloying) berry notes. Pours a rather unattractive cloudy pink with a frothy white head. Lots of sweet berry notes on the tongue... too sweet and too cloying. Could uses a little more wheat and or malt balance. Fairly medium bodied. For all the sticky sweet fruit, finishes rather dry.

Nose is of wheat and berries... suprised? Looks fantasticly goolish in a glowing pale plum/apricot sort of way with a great white head. Too bad the flavor of this beer doesn’t match the appearance. Flavor isn’t bad, only slightly overpronounced fruit flavors with just a touch of the medicinal aftertaste often associated with fruit beers. I’m lead to believe this comes from using extracts/fruit essence rather than real fruit. Some of the wheat malt comes through, the hops in the flavor profile were a nice touch. This beer had a nice mouthfeel. Overall better than other fruit beers I’ve had, but nothing I’d buy with any regularity at all.
