Southern Tier Raspberry Wheat Beer is a clear, sparkling straw colored ale with a thin white head that fades to a film and leaves nice lacing. The aroma is dominated with raspberry candy with a touch of herbal hops and light grain. It is smooth and medium-light bodied with a crisp finish. The flavor is like the aroma: raspberry, herbal hops and light grain. It’s well balanced, perhaps a bit heavy on the fruity candy flavor but nice and simple after some yard work on a hot day.

LIGHT CRISP TASTE NOT MUCH BODY. RASPBERRY TASTE IS MILD BODIED. NOT AS GOOD AS SOME OTHER FRUIT BEERS FROM BELGIUM. A LITTLE DISAPPOINTED CONSIDERING THIS WAS MADE BY SOUTHERN TIER. I EXPECTED MORE.

A boring fruit beer. Aroma was nice. All raspberries in the front with just a hint of light malt. Pour was a boring clear light gold with no bubbles and a one finger white head. Taste was average. Strong raspberry in the front with nice heavy carbonation and a light malty aftertaste.

12 oz bottle: Aroma is big on Raspberries, sweet fresh raspberries. It’s actually kind of hard to get through that aroma to detect any other kinds of scents. Pours a straw color with a soapy white head that diminishes into nothingness. Taste has got those berries in there with a slight wheat undertone. It’s somewhat dry on the tongue and the flavor of those raspberries stays with you into the aftertaste. Overall, Meh... It’s not that great too fruity for me. Cheers!

12oz bottle served in a stem glass. Pours clear, pale gold with a small white head. Smells of sweet raspberry ice cream and a bit of dough. Doughy wheat flavor with a touch of raspberry at the end. Thin, watery, boring.

12oz bottle. Pours clear golden in color with very thin white head, which does not last long. Aroma raspberries, raspberries and sweet. Taste sweet, raspberries and spicey with dry finish.
