New Glarus Raspberry Tart

Super dark red with pinkish-grey head. Foamy, extremely heady and thick aroma, bit of salt up front and acidity in the middle. Thick body. You’d expect something this tart to hurt your teeth, but it’s definitely drinkable and beer-like. Wonderful.

Rating 300! Thanks to James for the bottle. Murky dark red/light maroon color. Quite inviting. Nose is fresh muddled raspberries, very tart, with hiints of sour cherries and fresh lemon juice. An earthy but very fresh and fruity aroma. Taste is fresh raspberries; pleasantly acidic. A crowd pleaser for sure. Great beer.

Deep and dark marron color with a pink colored head. Smell is wonderful. Raspberries in strength and sweet like dessert. Taste is sweet raspberries. Dessert in a liquid form. Almost anyone would like this beer. Easily drinkable.

Ruby red color with a light pinkish head leaving excellent lacing. Rich smell of tart raspberries; reminds me a lot of the raspberry Jell-o my grandma used to make. Raspberries lightly pucker in your mouth, it’s really like eating raspberries fresh, only in liquid form. The amount of tartness is perfect, not overly acidic like how some raspberry framboise’s can be; sour, without the harsh. Carbonation dances on the tongue, enhancing each flavor. Medium bodied, finishes a bit dry. Incredibly drinkable, if this was in a nonic pint glass, I’d probably end up polishing off the bottle in no time.

Rating #1700.

Very deep cherry in colour, creamy and lasting off-white coloured head, good lacing. The aroma is all raspberries - real raspberries, high sweetness, some jam. The flavour is of raspberry jam, good tartness, sweet, rich. Very sweet mouthfeel, medium body, medium carbonation. Finishes long with lots of raspberry sweetness.

This is excellent. Very well balanced, high drinkability, only 4% alc?? Seems like it should be more. Incredible. I actually tried a sip of this with a bit of peanut butter, it was amazing.
