I’m here to save you $5! Unlike the bartender who didn’t warn me about this junk. He got his. What a mood-killer. This beer is NASTY! Carbonated water with a hint of raspberry. I was smacking my lips trying to get rid of the bland aftertaste. Stick with the Turbodog.

White head. Red/copper hazy appearance. Fruity, berries. Mixed feelings, Not much flavor and light bodied but also not overly sweet so pretty drinkable.

Can't smell or taste raspberry. Smell is slightly burnt. Pours a weak golden yellow with white head that devolves quickly. High carbonation with not much taste. Not very good. ---Rated via Beer Buddy for iPhone

Smells like eggs. A little Weird. Small but but creamy head. Rasberry, blackberry. Slowly settling in to the beer.

okay, so let’s start by... i’m not pouring this in a glass. this beer is rough... i can assume it’s gonna pour a hazy purplish gold like the last time i had it. the nose, from the hole in the can, smells oddly like dog kibble... but some raspberries and wheat... but mostly dog food. honestly, maybe i’m still drunk from last night. i don’t remember eating dog food... flavor isn’t as bad.. wheaty, raspberries, kinda mild and a bit watery but actually i’m gonna call this drinkable... somehow... now i know i’m still drunk.

Sweet, fruity malt aroma. Cloudy amber colored. Malty taste with sweet raspberry undertones. Crisp and refreshing summer beer. ---Rated via Beer Buddy for iPhone
