Dec 11, 2006 12 oz bottle from drewbeerme. pours a redish brown with a tall light head that fades and releases a wonderful raspberry aroma: sour and sweet sugars. The brown ale part of the beer is very strong, it has a strong taste of brown ale (carmel and malt) with a little sweet and sour raspberries along the edges of it. I thought the flavor potential was very big but in the end it really lacks the lactic sourness and frutiness it needs to be a great beer. The brown ale underneath is a little boring and without that extra fruit step, the beer leaves me a little disapointed.

Dec 4, 2006 Of the fruit beers i’ve had, tis is one of my favorites. It’s not too sweet, and the raspberry flavor is just subtle enough. Pours a nice dark copper with a small white head. Aroma is very nice, with a definate smell of raspberry.

Dec 1, 2006 12 oz bottle. Best before Jan 2007.
Well worn copper penny color. Small tan head with a pink tint.
Decadent raspberry chocolate cake aroma.
Raspberry flavor starts out nice, a little sweet a little tart, but quickly becomes cloying.
Decent beer, but it becomes a little to sweet to drink more than one.

Nov 30, 2006 not the beer I was expecting. while it was easy to drink, this was all about the raspberries. I expected more from the brown ale base, but the aroma and flavor was predominantly raspberries. good in a way, especially the well hidden alcohol, but I was expecting some bret to lend some additional character to this.

Nov 30, 2006 It’s definately got the black forest cake thing going for it, but is otherwise pretty one-dimensional. Thin and fizzy, with a nice raspberry aroma and a touch of fruity-sourness and chocolate. Not much else to say.

Nov 24, 2006 12 oz. bottle from Plaza Liquor - Pours a clear copper color with a average size, thick light tan/pink head. Thin lacing. Has a berry aroma. Has a raspberry and toasty malt flavor. Medium body. This beer was a pleasant suprise. I guess I was expecting more of a Lambic. A decent beer. Give it a try.

Nov 22, 2006 12 ounce bottle. Pours brown with a purple tint. Fizzy redish brown head. Aroma if a black forest style cake. Raspberry and chocolate again in the flavor. Carbonation really takes away from this beer. Very aggresive.
