Oct 18, 2009 Bottle via trade. This is just as good as the Wisconsin Belgian Red (i.e. it’s f&%@ing awesome). Pours a brilliant ruby color with a lasting off-white head and good lacing. Aroma is intense raspberries. That’s just about all there is to it, but it’s great. Flavor is loads of fresh raspberry, oak, and vanilla, with maybe even a hint of chocolate. Both sweet and mildly tart. Body is medium and palate is incredibly smooth and creamy, with an amazing long finish.

Oct 15, 2009 Sampled at the Metro Detroit October 09 tasting. Ruby copper pour with a short lived white head. The aroma is sweet raspberries and brown sugar. More of the same in the flavor with a long, juicy, berry finish, a little chocolate, some tartness on the finish with lingering nutmeg and cinnamon. Awesome balance and complexity! Sticky, medium full body.

Oct 11, 2009 Nice deep red with a small pink head on top. Sweet cookie’ish raspberry aroma with somewhat odd yeast notes. Flavour is obviously raspberry but with earhy notes, cookies and other dessert related sweet flavours. The beer ends with a nice light bittersweet and rather tart flavour that reminds me of the seeds in freshly picked raspberrys. Body is quite full with very finetuned carbonation.

Oct 11, 2009 Bottle. Yes darling but is it beer? INTENSE rasberry. Reminds me of Brämhults hallonjuice.

Oct 10, 2009 Bottle from Cracked Kettle.
Pours dark blood red
Heavy aroma of raspberries and chewing gum.
Slightly sour but mainly sweet, I found it better when it got warmer even though it was supposed to be served cold.

Oct 7, 2009 Red pour with orange highlights and an off-pink head. Aroma is extremely fresh and fruit-driven, pretty intense. Taste follows suit with extreme fruit flavors, and a little sweet malt. I’m reminded of flemish sours if you remove the "sour" part and add more fruit. Medium to light bodied, but very flavorful. Good!
