Pours an opaque, dark brown color. Smells like raspberry, nothing special. Taste is extremely fruity and sweet. A bittery, malty tinge at the end reminds you it’s a beer, but before that it has a distinct "malt beverage" feel to it.

Dec 5, 2009 Tasted at Beer Dabbler event in St. Paul. Not a lot to say. Fairly sweet with an obvious raspberry flavor. I think my wife would like this one.

Nov 23, 2009 Presentation: It was poured from a brown 12oz, long neck bottle into a pint glass.
Appearance: It has a deep amber colored body with good clarity, visible carbonation and a light tan head. The head is very light and soapy. It very quickly fades down to just a very thin wispy layer. Lacing is minimal and slick.
Smell: The aroma hit me with a light waft of raspberry candy as I opened the bottle. In the glass and with a proper inspection I get the same raspberry candy but with notes of honey and biscuit like malt.
Taste/Palate: The flavor is very much the same as the aroma. It has a light body with a sweet malty character. There are notes of sweet honey and sweet/tart raspberry with hop flavor way off in the distance. The hop flavor just kind of picks up on the tartness of the berry and adds a very mellow subdued bitterness to the finish. Its palate feels light and silky with light somewhat fizzy carbonation.
Notes: Overall it is a nice sweet and average summery beer.

Oct 28, 2009 12oz bottle. Pours a slightly hazy amber with a slowly receding off white head. Heavy aroma of sweet honey and a touch of berries. Taste is dominated by raspberry and some grain, light sweet honey and a little hop bitterness in the finish. Nicely balanced and not overly sweet in the taste.

Oct 5, 2009 The honey and raspberry add a very subtle hint of flavor, yet not too sweet to the taste. Aroma is average.

Aug 5, 2009 Pours amber with a minimal head. Strong aromas of raspberry (artifical) and hops. Tastes of sweet malts and raspberry flavouring, give way to a nice bitter hop finish. No detection of wildflowers or honey in the beer. Although the artifical raspberry is disheartening I still found it to work well with the underlying beer flavours to create a refreshing summer ale.

Jul 26, 2009 Bottle. Pours an amber body with an off white head. Sweet artificial berries, some malty sweetness and a grainy finish. Eh.
