Mar 15, 2002 Dark reddish-brown; aroma like a raspberry tart - very sweet and fruity. Fresh, seedy berry flavours at the beginning, but then giving way to the more confectionary aspects before finishing up sweet & sour. Brown ale not as present as I prefer in the style, which leaves it overall too candyish.

Dec 16, 2003 Small beige-pink head atop a deep ruby-brown body. Aroma is medium sweet, definitely raspberry, some butter. Taste reflects the beer's origins -- there's both the sour/sweet raspberry, and nuttiness. Watery medium body, with medium acidity, that hides the alcohol remarkably well.

Dec 3, 2003 (Bottle) Pours a cooper-red color with a beige head with pinkish highlights. Has a strong raspberry aroma and a descent flavor for a fruit beer.

Dec 2, 2002 Updated: Mar 30, 2008Bottle... This beer rocks!... The aroma is of heavy malt, fresh raspberries and cherries. This crystal clear ruby-colored beer has very little to no head. What little there is appears to be creamy and off-white. Beautiful beer. The flavor is malty and fruity up front. Guess which fruit!! Extremely well-balanced. Not sweet in the slightest. Lightly bitter and tart on the backside. Light-bodied with a watery mouthfeel. Fizzy carbonation. Short, dry and acrid finish. Very nice fruit beer!

Jan 6, 2003 Pours a medium brown with a red hue and little head. Fresh ripe raspberry aroma with no noticable hops. The body is slightly sweet, but overpoweringly tart and unbalanced. Had no idea this was 7% abv though.

May 28, 2004 Bottle. Yipes, not too good. Sweet sticky rasberry cola and brown sugar. Tasted like rasbery cordial on top of a below average brwon ale. I seriously have my doubts about New belgium.
