Dec 30, 2007 Not a very strong aroma, but a nice suttle taste of raspberry in there. Great copper coloring with no head, an enjoyable beer.

Dec 14, 2007 Tastewise, this is quality stuff. The ABV is lower, which is a downside as far as bang for your buck, but this is actually a better tasting beer than the Winter Cheer, for example. I think that if this beer had a higher ABV it would get a higher rating.

Nov 26, 2007 Realy good beer. There wasn’t an overwlming taste of "fruity" in this beer. Great balance of ingredients. Smooth and very satisfying.

Nov 23, 2007 Mmmm - smells like raspberry jam, or a raspberry tart. There is a nice, dark brass glow to it, and a pleasant flavor of raspberry and grains, but it is not too sweet. This seems pretty wheaty for an ale. It makes me think of field of wildflowers. The brewer is in Colorado, but the label makes reference to Montana, yet it is brewed in Maryland(?).

Nov 6, 2007 Pours pleasing golden with a medium off-white head that laces prettily on the glass. Nose is raspberry, faint soap, faint malt. Flavor of raspberry overwhelms the mild malt backbone, with honeycomb and subtle floral hops at the end. Fairly sweet but finishes rather sour and dry. This is actually pretty good.

Oct 31, 2007 10/24/07 From the bottle. Aroma is slightly musty, with a sweet complex blend, a slight honey note, with low fruit that doesn’t seem to be soley raspberry. Appearance is medium clear gold with a moderate off-white head. Flavor is a tart fruit skin/malt blend forward with no harshness but still not smooth; it’s a little too sweet and this lingers into the finish. Mouthfeel isn’t bad, very light, but there is some astringency that lingers.

Oct 7, 2007 Reddish coppery color with minimal head. Aroma is strongly raspberry with little underlying beer essence. Taste is cardboardy and weird with a raspberry taste that seems to come only from the aroma. Minimal "beer" in the taste too. $1.5/12oz
