Bottle from Ughsmash. Smells like a handful of crushed raspberries. Tastes so much of fresh raspberries that I was expecting to find seeds in it. This is a great beer and would be a surefire way to bring some BMC drinking girls over to the dark side.

Nov 21, 2008 Back in the day I was a fiend for the raspberry beers, a lot has changed since those days. But one thing has not; this was then and remains to be a favorite of mine. The beer pours a beautiful light purple with a large lasting pink head. Aroma is of fresh raspberries, a faint oak, and yeasty funk. The taste is remarkably tart and slightly sour and dominated by the fruit accented by yeast and very light malt. The beer is well rounded and has a sharp initial mouthfeel.
Oh, and this was also served at my wedding too.

Nov 19, 2008 Deep purple color, true purple foam head. Great fruit beer, share with a mate. Too sugary, sweet tasting. Its raspberry and tart, period. A rare treat, glad to open with sleepy the night he takes the reigns at Ginger Man.

Nov 1, 2008 Bottle thanks to JB175...shared with Swalden 28, and ericsandersnavy. Pours a dark brown with some reddish highlights and a foamy light brown-to slightly pinkish head with some good lacing. Aroma of veery fresh raspberries, some berry brandy, a tart element, some farm, and a bit of smoke towards the very end. Taste is raspberry syrup with some light tartness and a touch of brett. Light mouthfeel, slightly creamy with lively bubbles.
