Draught at GABF 2008. Hazy orange coloured with a medium sized off white head. Aroma of raspberries with notes of vanilla. Fruity flavour of raspberres with notes of vanilla. Tart berryish finish. Light watery.

(Draught) Pours a hazy pinkish-red body with a small light pink head. Aroma of raspberries, earthy, greens, and yeast. Flavor of fresh raspberries, earthiness, light funkiness and some oak with a dry finish.

Draft @ Belmont Station in Portland. Pours cloudy, milky, 100% opaque red/pink with a 1/2 inch pink head. Pungent, fresh, vibrant nose of pulpy, meaty raspberries, with a light bit of lactic acid in the nose. Flavor is meat pulp raspberry, very pure and authentic flavor of the fruit. Moderate tartness, very light (but natural) sourness, a little prickly on the tongue as well. Wonderfully fresh and real flavor throughout, thirst-quenching and refreshing, with a true fruit flavor a little excess sweetness/sugariness. Really nice.

Multiple samples, GABF 2006. Head is mostly diminishing. Body is light red. Aroma is lightly malty (toasted grain), with notes of tomato leaves, raw wood, raspberry. Flavor is lightly to moderately sweet, moderately acidic. Finish is lightly sweet, moderately acidic, lightly bitter. Light to medium body, watery texture, lively carbonation. Uncomfortably vegetal nose and not very lambic-like (perhaps should just be listed as fruit beer). Ample tartness saves it somewhat.

GABF 2006: Hazy amber with a reddish tint. The aroma appeared to be more malty than fruity. The raspberry was on the light side. Light funk. The flavor was btter with nice sour raspberry and some funk. The finish was a little bland.

GABF ’07. Pours hazy ruby with a small, fizzy, off-white head, diminishing with fair lacing. Aroma is average malt (bread, meal), average hops (citrus), average yeast (dough) with notes of raspberry. Light bodied, oily texture, flat carbonation, and a metallic finish. Average duration, light sweetness, acidity and bitterness.

GABF 2008 poured a hazy red with a small lingering pink head. Aromas of tart raspberries with some yeast notes. Palate was light bodied and crisp with atart finish. Flavors of tart raspberries, light yeast and a hint of wood with a crisp lingering tart fginish.
