iowaherkeye (1832), Bakersfield, California, USA Oct 7, 2009 On tap @ the brewpub. Cloudy light orange with a small white head. Banana and bubblegum up front with some fresh tart raspberries, as well as some artificial sweet raspberry behind. Flavor has the bananas dominating withthe sweet and tart raspberries behind, still sort of artificial but no longer very sweet. Minimal bitterness. Light to moderate prickly caarbonation with a light to medium body. Actually, pretty good--pleasantly surprised. kp (8400), Woodstock, Georgia, USA Aug 9, 2009

nqualls (1429), Nashville, Tennessee, USA Sep 22, 2008 On tap. Poured a hazy yellow color with a small white head. Aroma of banana ester and of course raspberries. Flavor was tart with a sweet raspberry finish. I generally don’t like fruit beers, but this was a solid offering. riversideAK (2648), Shoreline, Washington, USA Apr 20, 2008 Notes of banana and bubble gum with a raspberry sweet/tartness too. Flavors of initial tartness then raspberry, then banana. A little lingering sweet/tart thing. A nice fruit beer. Dogbrick (2813), Columbus, Ohio, USA Jun 20, 2006 Sample at the brewpub: Cloudy gold/yellow color with a thin white head and thin spotty lacing. Aroma of raspberries and wheat, surprisingly enough. Light body with tart raspberry, wheat and malt flavors. The finish is fruity and wheaty, with the raspberry lingering. This beer is pretty good all around. IrishBoy (2685), Bakersfield, California, USA Feb 28, 2006 On tap at the pub. Very cloudy yellow gold with a light white head. Lemony raspberry aroma, with a raspberry whaet taste, and a tiny bit of bitterness in the aftertaste Storm (2685), Amager, Denmark Oct 7, 2005 On draught. Tasted during trip to California. Very nice aroma of raspberry. Golden unclear colour. Very simular taste like the "Harvest moon wheat." just with raspberry notes, just a bit better.
