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.

Taste like a raspberry soda with a hint on honey mixed in. Nice flavoring, baut a little weak on the palate.

Bottle. Hazy amber pour with a cream colored head. Mild raspberry aroma with hints of caramel. Tart raspberry flavor with a little honey sweetness. Not bad.

Bottle. Pours a clear pale amber color with a small off-white head. Has a fruity sweet raspberry aroma. Sweetish malty raspberry flavor with a thin mouthfeel. Sweetish fruity raspberry finish.

Funny beer, is it sweet? is it a wheat? Honey and raspberry? yes. And a lot at that. Smooth and easy on a super hot day. Otherwise unspecatcular for sure.

From a 12 fl. oz. bottle marked 195A07. Seeing the Editor’s note, I obviously got my hands on an older bottle. Pours a rich honey-amber color. Very aromatic. The raspberry is strong as are the malts. Taste is full of raspberry and smooth like honey. It is sweet but maybe a little too sweet for my liking. Still, not bad.
