djd07 (606), Houston, Texas, USA Jun 30, 2009 Can as shown. Pours a pale golden with a frothy white head that diminishes quickly. A lot of carbonation and bubbles. The aroma is a fruity rasberry and redbull. The taste is an overpowering rasberry and sour finish. More like a wine cooler than a beer. Not much going on with this one but the novelty of a energy drink beer. Strykzone (1331), Wood River, Illinois, USA Jun 11, 2009 Totally rate whoring here. This should be near the bottom 10 of most beer drinkers. Just bad.Big raspberry aroma and flavor kind of like it. ben4321 (562), Rockville, Maryland, USA May 29, 2009 I haven’t had this in a while, and once was more then enough...Do they still make this crap?
Overall Impression:
It’s basically beer (barely beer) mixed with energy drink, what would you expect?
fidelis83 (558), Clinton, Iowa, USA May 27, 2009 Pours very pale yellow with a thin fizzy white head that has poor retention. Aroma is redbull, straw, and corn. Flavor is redbull, mineral water, bitter herbal notes, off grain notes and cherry jello. Finish is corn and artificial berry flavors. Palate is thin, acidic, way overcarbonated and extraordinarily dry. Not very good. I am not sure why this stuff still exists as I am pretty sure they were ordered to take away the energy drink add-ins in some lawsuit. It tastes much more like an energy drink than beer. Butters (1278), Not-so-Temporarily in Nashville, Tennessee, USA Dec 21, 2008 16oz can claims 6.0% abv. Extremely clear light pale yellow with large fading bright white head. Aroma of a redbull. Flavor is like that of a sweettart, with a raspberry tart finish. Not awful, i probably wont be able to drink the whole can though unclemike (760), Ft. Riley, Kansas, USA Dec 11, 2008 Couldnt really tell this was a beer tasted more like a energy drink Straw color with a small white head. Aroma is fruity with a sweet tart character-cherries. Flavor is of tart cherries,sweet like candy douglas88 (1311), Salt Lake City, Utah, USA Sep 30, 2008 Can. The ’label’ is a bit different than the one on the site, it only mentions raspberry flavors, not caffeine or whatever. I guess its the same beer. Anyway, pours a clear golden with a medium, but quickly dissipating head. The aroma reminds me of pixie sticks, really. The aroma is quite strong and not exactly horrible, but for a beer this is very odd. A light and watery body along with a sugary sweet and sour body. This is so far from a typical beer flavor, and in a bad way. Not disgusting, but really I think I’d rather drop pixie sticks into water. puboflyons (502), New Hampshire, USA Aug 20, 2008 From a 1 pint can marked 8-06-25-D-2-
MA. The label says Raspberry flavored but the commercial description on this page does not mention that. I hope I have the right one. It pours clear yellow with an overpowering aroma of raspberry. But whether this raspberry is real or raspberry flavoring I am not sure. The taste is w-a-a-y too much raspberry. It tastes like a wine cooler. This was a drain pour. Not one of Bud’s better ideas.
