I didn’t like this one. I t was a raspbery soda water with minimal beer flavors. Havent had their wheat maybe thats why its so mild is cuz the wheat is. The coloring was interesting kind of pinkish purpulish with some fizz going on. There is no real flavor to speak of; give me some more of something.

Very light and clear with a straw coloroing. Raspberry extract character, syrupy sweet, a lip-smacker. I’m tired of this style. This is just OK.

On tap at the brewpub. Slightly more golden than Landing Light. Smells like a big ol’ dish of raspberry cobbler. possibly a Jolly Rancher aroma as well. Sweet and tart taste. Lacks the painful seed extract off-flavor of many raspberry ales.

Its different. A nice cascade of bubles with no head and little lacing. There is aa aroma of raspberry. This was easy to drink, but left me with stale dry aftertaste. It reminded me more of soda then beer.

Pale pink with no head. Light raspberry aroma. Med weight with strong sparkle, and a dry finish. Light raspberry flavor with faint hops. Not bad.

Raspberry is the prevailing feature of the aroma, which comes from a raspberry extract. Head and lacing are both spare. Body is a clear, light yellow. Good visible carbonation. Lightly sweet and somewhat salty in the finish. Softly carbonated with a somewhat thin texture. Went very well with the vanilla panna cotta desert it was paired with at McCoy’s 1st annual Brewmaster’s beer dinner in St. Louis Park, MN on 5/18/04. It is a little thin and by admission of brewmaster, keith Thompson, not his favorite beer. But, it is well crafted and is a good option for the right situation and audience.

Well, I am going to go ahead and assume that this one was brewed for the ladies and those who really do not like "beer". It is very light and the raspberry flavour is derived from raspberry essence, which I feel give this beer somewhat of a medicinal quality. Not one of my preferred choices.
