| 2.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 4/5 | 5/10 | 3/5 | 8/20 | Aug 20, 2008 Appearance: Pours an amber body with a quickly dieing, white head.
Smell: Straight-up scent of raspberry-flavored cough syrup. Ugh. Look ashamed, Spanish Peaks Mascot Dog!
Taste: Pale malts with a caramel sweetness and a hint of toothsome honey. Then BANG it’s the slighty off-putting raspberry taste. Citrusy, earthy hops with a medium bitterness. The hops can scrub away the sweetness, but can’t manage to loosen that gacky raspberry flavoring from my tongue. Sip of Perrier. Drying, faux raspberry finish.
Mouthfeel: Just barely medium-bodied. Just barely above medium carbonation.
Drinkability: I would’ve much preferred the base beer minus the natural raspberry flavoring. Whaddya say, Spanish Peaks? Think we can swing that? Steinface (77), Hatfield, Pennsylvania, USA

Taste of raspberry, tartness, and a dryness and bitterness on the back end.
