For a fruit beer, not too bad but I’ve had better. It’s rather cloudy in the glass and doesn’t really retain the head very well. After reading how it was made, I was rather surprised that the raspberry flavor wasn’t stonger. Maybe it would had taste better with a little Jimi Hendrix cranked up

Not bad for a wheat beer. Pours a cloudy pinkish color. Raspberry flavor is very subtle. Not my choice of beer but rather refreshing. Nice during a hot summer BBQ.

served at NYC Brewtopiafest. hazy golden body with a small white head. smelled fruity, of raspberry and of fresh wheat. tastes of wheat, rasberries, strawberries and is very carbonated. the body is a bit thin. a little too sweet.

Bottle. Poured an attractive dark golden color with head that dissapated quickly. Very smooth and flavorful, fruit flavor is more evident than in others I’ve had. I thought this was good. Can’t believe how others have bashed it. Extremely drinkable.

This is weird shit. I’ve had good fruit beers before, and this ain’t it. Nose of rasperry Kool Aid, but not real rasperies. Tastes like raspberry skittles, if there were such a beast, dissolved in Schlitz. Don’t drink this shit.
