| 2.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 3/5 | 3/10 | 2/5 | 8/20 | Jan 22, 2005 Pours hazy reddish amber, almost resembling an IPA. Aroma is sweet malty. Taste is way too sweet. fruity taste with no hop presence to speak of. Almost undrinkable to me. PorterPounder (3147), Tallahassee, Florida, USA
| 2.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 2/5 | 10/20 | Jan 20, 2005 12 oz bottle - Grapveine Market - Austin, Tx. Pours a medium copper with a thin, but long lasting white head. Aroma has some faint rapsbery notes with a little bit oif cider-like essence. Flavor has the same brief raspberry notes, not much else. Mouthfeel is slightly watery. Turns a bit metallic near the end. hotstuff (3175), Indiana, USA
| 2.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 3/5 | 4/10 | 2/5 | 7/20 | Jan 9, 2005 Bottle. Small smooth off-white head that fully diminished, sparse lacing, fine-medium sized bubbles, carbonated, and an orange brown hue. Aroma was lightly malty, sweet, raspberry and honey. Flavor was sweet, dry, tart, sour, raspberry, and some honey. Mouthfeel was fairly smooth and dry. Light body. Not impressed with this one at all. legion242 (1586), Richardson, Texas, USA
| 3.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 4/10 | 2/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 14/20 | Dec 30, 2004 Really not that bad. Not exactly appropriate for late December, But I can see where this would be great in the summer time. All of the associated sweetness is held back and not cloying at all.

| 2.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 2/5 | 5/10 | 2/5 | 9/20 | Dec 8, 2004 Bottle. Thin and kind of weird tasting. Berry, citrus, lemon, light malts, perfumney, and a little hops. Too perfumey. Not pleasant to drink. Kevin (1918), Colorado, USA
| 2.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 3/5 | 4/10 | 2/5 | 8/20 | Nov 30, 2004 pours brown with a red tint. thin light head. strong sweet raspberry aroma. up front raspberry taste with a balancing bitter finish that is very carbonated. grainey taste is underneath everything in this. i might pick up some more for when some women come over, but other than that it doesn’t do anything for me. crazyvin (1254), New York, USA
| 2.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 5/10 | 2/5 | 10/20 | Nov 1, 2004 retired!!!! hope this one wasn’t old. not bad for a fruit beer. A good balance between honey and raspberry in the aroma. taste was mainly sweet with some raspberry notes. raspberries didn’t seem artifical. sfontain (506), Columbus, Ohio, USA
| 2.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 4/10 | 2/5 | 9/20 | Oct 30, 2004 Bleh. Deep red with a tiny head. Pretty realistic raspberry aroma, but nothing else. Flavor is pleasant raspberry and honey right up front, along with a very brief hop bite, but it just plain drops to nothingness after that. Watery. Not worth buying more than one bottle.
