Sep 20, 2009 Amazing flavor. Perfect balance of tartness and sweetness. Not sour or pungent at all. Great dark red color with a pinkish head. Took a long time to track this one down but well worth the wait.

Sep 14, 2009 A great beer from ericandersnavy. Thanks a lot man. Pours a very dark, deep red, with a lightly pink tinged tan head. The aroma is freshest of fresh raspberry. Medium body with mild carbonation. Flavor is quite mellow but intensely raspberry. A strong astringent tartness - but not sour. Maybe astringency is from the oak vats. It is quit tastey. Could go through a bottle or 3 any time.

Sep 14, 2009 Graciously shared by bhensonb. This fruit beer poured reddish brown with a thin, but pretty pinkish brown head and a delicious raspberry aroma. There is a mellow raspberry flavor that is pleasantly sweet, but not too much, and pleasantly tart, but not too much. There is a definite oak undertone. I could drink this all day. Fantastic. Thanks Bill.

Sep 14, 2009 750 ml bottle acquired via trade. Pours deep red with a thick pink head that fades quickly. Aroma is raspberry, a little sour vinous note and some sugar and malt. Flavor is very sweet raspberry, slight tartness to the finish not much complexity, but is there supposed to be? Enjoyable, but only in small doses, much like other fruit beers.

Sep 13, 2009 Bouteille de 750 ml, rapportée du Wisconsin par Dany. Merci ! Arômes intenses de framboises fraîches. Robe rouge et claire, effervescence moyenne et légère mousse. En bouche, les framboises fraîches et très naturelles sont sur toutes les tribunes. La finale est très légèrement sucrée et moyennement sûre. Préférée à la Belgian Red.

Sep 11, 2009 Glorious fruit flavor, nott too fake and not too sour. Like a natural fruit juice with beer. Deliscious. Really cleans your mouth. Bottle from a tasting at the house of chris Montelius

Sep 8, 2009 Nose is pungent wild raspberry with just a hint of yeasty beer goodness behind. Taste is huge raspberry sweetness that is mellowed by the wheat and bready yeast. Nothing subtle about this one, very straightforward and perfectly done for what it is. Just a touch of sour tartness on the finish, and the carbonation is perfect to spread the flavors around. No way I could drink an entire 750, but I don’t think that’s the intention. Perfect with brownies and vanilla ice cream.
