On-tap at River Roost Bar- Port Orleans Riverside Resort, Walt Disney World. Light raspberry notes filling out a grainy, sour wheat body with notes of banana and bubblegum.

This beer was all the craze back in my college days. Really not much happening here, just an over carbonated fruit beer. Pleasant taste but thinness and aftertaste bring it down.

12 oz draft at Epcot during the Food and Wine festival. Pour is slightly hazed golden, with just a touch of blueish purple peeking through. Aroma of light raspberry fruit, actually nice natural smell - just not much of it. Taste is tart wheat with a covering of the raspberry. Taste of the fruit was less natural tasting versus the nose. Overall, decent and drinkable.

Kind of a golden color with hints of purple or reddish blue. Tastes like most fruit beers, though instead of sweet, this was more tart and acidic. Unique in that there was pulp/sediment floating around. I’d enjoy another.

Bottle, clear light yellow beer with a haze. Flavor is sweet fruit and a carbonation you can’t beat. Although not too impressive

Odin’s Den. Very cloudy golden color. This was really sweet. Nice smell. The flavor was a letdown.

Getting notebook online. Bottle. Pours a sparkling and cloudy white gold. Raspberry on the nose. Good raspberry flavors a bit fake. Carbonated mouthfeel. A decent fruit beer.

Aroma is pure raspberry. Flavor is raspberry. Raspberry has no place in a wit beer. It’s like raspberry wine cooler, without the bite of a beer. Crap.
