| 4.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 17/20 | Dec 11, 2009 Growler… This beer rocks!… Murky, dark, purplish red ale with a small, creamy, off-white head. The bouquet is fresh raspberry rapture. Full-bodied and creamy with gentle carbonation. The flavor is of sweet raspberries with moderate acidity. Sweet raspberry finish. Very reminiscent of New Glarus Raspberry Tart. Big time kudos to TheCheeseMan for sharing his growler of this world class beer! adrian910ss (1435), philadelphia, Pennsylvania, USA

| 3.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 3/5 | 16/20 | Dec 11, 2009 Growler courtesy ChzMan. Dark brown with purplish hues. White carbonation. Similar to NG RT with a bit less raspberry impact and more tartness. Medium body, mildly juicy, balanced carbonation. Too sweet for me to drink a lot of, but tasty indeed.

| 3.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | Jan 25, 2008 very sweet raspberry aroma, redish colour, has a nice sweet taste of raspberries, the best beer using raspberries i have tried, good stuff. Pwn3d (1118), Manhattan, New York, USA
| 3.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | Mar 31, 2009 had on tap @ brewpub during 2nd visit. Half pint. Odd looking fungus like white collections of sud atop a raspberry puree body. Served not cold, more cool. I did not find this over-the-top or overly intense as some have mentioned. A medium sharp rasp tart bite, smooth and enjoyable. Actually I thought it was a tame in respect to Phoenix Kriek. Definately some overlap between the two, which is a good thing. These guys really nail fruit beers. xproudfoot (729), Paleolithic, Pennsylvania, USA
| 3.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 5/5 | 15/20 | Jan 22, 2006 Growler thanks to Lauren & Greg. Aroma of raspberry fullness. Brown with reddish tinge. Little head. The first sip is ridiculously delicious - a sweet/tart raspberry cake. Tastes like ridiculously fresh fruit mixed in with a rich, full ale. A treat. Tart, malt finish hangs around in the mouth a while, making me savor more and more. Easy to drink, easy to enjoy. There’s a subtle bitterness to the beer that makes the sour/tartness of the raspberries much more pleasing and is overall much more balanced than, say, Fort (DFH). I wish this could be bottled but I’ll enjoy every last drop of it from the growler. kramer (2515), Sunbury, Pennsylvania, USA
| 3.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | Dec 17, 2005 On tap at brewpub. Poured a deep ruby, slightly cloudy, under a pink fluffy head. Nose is huge fresh raspberries with underlying malt trying to peek through. Tart raspberry fresh off the vine taste over a sweet malty base that resembled maybe a light Brown Ale. Medium to full bodied with an almost still fine carbonation, great velvety finish. Gets a little cloying by the end of the glass, definately a 1/2 pint selection. They do good things with fruit here, this stands up to young New Glarus Raspberry Tart.
