Chapel (329), Levittown, New York, USA Jul 27, 2007 Pours a bright opaque orange with a thin head. Nose is dominated by raspberries with subtle wheat undertones. Tart wheat taste with a raspberry finish. About as thick as a fruit juice. thenick (742), North Bellmore, New York, USA Jul 24, 2007 Tap @ Croxley Ales, Rockville Centre, NY. Pours a reddish-gold color with a frothy and lingering white head. Aroma is a very subdued mix of raspberry and wheat notes. Taste is watery with some odd sour raspberry-esque flavor in there (it’s really the only way to describe it). Not a total drain pour, but I didn’t enjoy this all that much. yayforbeer (641), Orange Park, Florida, USA Jul 20, 2007 Pint on tap at Mellow Mushroom. Hazy golden beer with a pink tinge. Nice wheaty, berry aroma. Flavor was not what I expected and positively so. I usually dont like fruit beers, and I usually dont like American wheats. but this one was a well balanced mix of wheat flavor, hops, and understated raspberry. Some crispness in the finish made it better than expected. Seems I liked it a little better than most of the raters here. Skyview (4007), Papoose Jct., Minnesota, USA Jul 18, 2007 From a 12-oz bottle shared with joebrew, pours a murky grayish brown brew with a spritzy off white head that dissolves quickly to a thin film and ring. Aroma of light sour berries, light multi-grain malt with something that reminded me of Haley’s M-O. Taste is highly carbonated, light with a distinct flavor of watered down blueberries and raspberries. Finish is slightly tart at first and then flat. joebrew (608), Farewell Minny; Hello Puyallup, Washington, USA Jul 18, 2007 Pours a hazy almost pink grapefruit tinged hue, with almost no head. Kind of offfensive nose with hints of grainy malt and rasberry seeds, almost an earthy dirt aroma. Nice semi-tart rasberry flavor on the front palate, followed by heavy carbonation, and lack of any decernable flavors. Finish is fairly dry and actually lasts a decent period of time. Not really a lot going on here. mrmojo (37), Edmond, Oklahoma, USA Jul 10, 2007 Bottle, notes...Why? This is a nice brewery, so why this? A sour, tart taste...mostly a citrus instead of berry nose. Sticky aftertaste. If you want a wheat, try something else. hopson (591), Williamsville, New York, USA Jul 9, 2007 Bottle- big carbonation, fairly tart. a slightly better than average raspberry wheat. keepersj12 (774), Sicklerville, New Jersey, USA Jul 7, 2007 Updated: Jul 18, 2007Pretty good. Nice aroma of berries. Flavor of berries too. Nice and refreshing.
