| 3.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | May 13, 2007 I remember trying this back in the early 90’s, when the brewing really was done in Montana. Medium amber, OK head. Aroma faintly of raspberries. Flavor is that of a typical amber ale with a touch of pleasant raspberry syrup. Maybe not sophisticated, but surprisingly enjoyable. Flavors are how I remembered them. Odeed (1680), Bakersfield, California, USA

| 2.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 10/20 | May 6, 2007 Not bad for a fruit beer, I guess. Pours an orangish amber with a small white head. Grainy aroma of malt, yeast, raspberry. Not overly sweet flavor ... sweet, earthy malt, berries, maybe a touch of honey. Light finish. Not bad. pkbites (344), Milwaukee, Wisconsin, USA
| 2.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 8/20 | May 6, 2007 Bottle. Pours a light copper color. Aroma is of fresh berries....very nice. Flavor is of raspberies, but it’s not as sweet as I expected a fruit based beer to be. Finish is much too quick. This is good, but not great. And it’s way, way, waaaaay over priced. For a good berry based beer I recommend the Founders Rübæus, Wittekerke Rosé, or for less money Leinenkugels Berry Weiss. nearbeer (1884), Knoxville, Tennessee, USA
| 2.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 5/10 | 3/5 | 6/20 | May 6, 2007 Bottle. Pours a mostly clear copper with small, but lasting head. Aroma is raspberry, with faint hop grassiness. Flavor is raspberry, little else. Maybe some hops. I like raspberries, and think this was a good idea, but just overdone. Palate is dry, slightly astringent and tingly.
