This is called a what beer and has no balls, I mean foam head. Palecopper in color. Totally see through, nice filtering job, seag dog. Was this not meant to be poured out of the bottle? Strong pure natural fruti raspberry smell. Tastes like raspberry flavored thick water with a little sugar added. Do you have any fucking idea how hard it is to brew a raspberry ale, much less a good tasting one, yes I do jackass. And this one is decent at best. Actually it’s above average. Bites like an american macro, finishes like one too. Too bad this thing is see through. Niixing them filters would have done wonders.... raspberry pulp, seeds and all. Yes I know.

There’s something that is quite difficult in rating fruit beers. Most of the time it’s, "Yep, it’s a raspberry wheat. What else do you want me to say?" That’s the case here. If you’ve had a raspberry wheat beer ever, you know what to expect and this is it. A fairly decent nose of some raspberry type. A thin feel with some vague raspberry and no wheat flavors. Not much to chew on. Well, there you go.

12oz bottle from Total Wine (Tampa, FL). Pours a clear amber with a thin white had that provides minimal lacing on the glass. Lively carbonation. Aroma is raspberry, wheat, straw and hints of spice. Flavor is wheaty and fruity with strong notes of red ripe fruit. Somewhat like a framboise but not as good. Generally watery mouthfeel with a quick, unremarkable finish.

This beer offers the nose an aroma consisting of raspberries and vinegar. It is gold colored and only produces a glaze of foam. This is flat, watery, and thin. It has an artificial raspberry taste that fades very bitterly.not very good

Aroma takes on an acidic raspberry flavor. It’s appearance is a coppery color, with a thin white collar. It’s a bit acidic raspberry with minor maltyness as well. It’s very crisp and refreshing. A nice summer beer.
