Jul 22, 2009 Bottle. Poured a dark red with a small reddish head. Aroma was full of raspberries and had a nice tart bite to it. Flavor began a bit sweet raspberries but lead to a more tart finish. An amazing fruit beer.

Jul 20, 2009 750 mL bottle shared at Immy’s Backyard Throwdown. Originally purchased at Discount Liquor in Milwaukee, WI on September 15, 2007. WOW! What a spectacular beer. Pours a murky, muddy red similar in appearance to the Belgian Red but a little darker. Strong, tart raspberry aroma. Big, flavorful raspberry flavor blended with wheat to balance and not overwhelm with its tartness. A spectacular fruit beer from New Glarus every bit the equal of Belgian Red.

Jul 12, 2009 750 ml bottle courtesy of a trade with brentfeesh. Pours a murky pinkish/reddish amber with a moderate tan head that lasted through the first third of the glass. Huge aroma of fresh raspberries. The flavor is again filled with tons of fresh raspberries along with just a bit of malt, brown sugar and just a hint of vanilla. Wow! The mouthfeel is creamy while at the same time tangy from the raspberries. Reminds me of a raspberry parfait. I shared this bottle at my son’s graduation party yesterday, and everyone who tried it, really liked it. Delicious!

Jul 9, 2009 Original review date 4/28/2008...
From 750 to Bristol Motor Speedway mug...
Deep raspberry red with thick, bready raspberry sherbet-colored head. Cloudy, frothy and nicely carbonated.
Strong aroma of fresh raspberry puree. Natural, perfumy creaminess with slight kick of yeast and carbonation.
Beautiful character of naturally fermented raspberries. Tasty, yeasty presence blends well to make this quite fulfilling. Extremely tangy with moderate carbonation - similar to a champagne-juice mix.
Feels like a creamy version of a sour raspberry soda - well-balanced with no aftertaste; bubbles create interesting zip on finish.
The ABV is quite manageable and this is awesome stuff. Surprisingly it’s quite filling! Can imagine only 1 or 2 per sitting to enjoy and savor. Excellent!
