Commercial Description:
A light bodied amber ale made with wildflower honey and natural raspberry. These ingredients, combined with five domestic and imported malted barleys, Pacific Northwest hops, water and ale yeast, creat a unique, fruity ale with a soft palate and a touch of sweetness.

Editor's Note: It is unknown at present exactly where each of the Spanish Peaks beers are being brewed. Flying Dog no longer makes any of them. Some are brewed by City Brewery in LaCrosse, WI. Expect this beer entry to move as more recent info becomes available.

Visit the Spanish Peaks website.

Nice simple beer, with the raspberries evident in both the aroma and taste. Minimal hops, some malts, nothing special.

Nice amber color. Light and tarty aroma of raspberries. Medium mouthfeel, some malt and light raspberry fruitness. Average bitterness. Drinkable.

Copper colored body with a ruby hue. There are hints of raspberry in the flavor, but it’s not overpowering. The body is a bit bland and somewhat overcarbonated.
