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.

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?

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.

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

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.

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.
