blkitson (125), Westerville, Ohio, USA Oct 27, 2006 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
SuperDave70 (766), Arizona, USA Sep 4, 2008 Hazy golden pour with a good medium head that stayed a while. Aroma of wheat and lightly toasted malt, with a hint of berries. Flavor is grain and malt, with the sweet-sour berries in the background. Definitely better than many fruit beers, which I find to be overly sweet. The light berry flavor actually improves this brew, rather than detracts from it. mike5203 (33), Wilkes Barre, Pennsylvania, USA Aug 22, 2008 great wheat beer, smell of raspberrys is not overwhelming, nor is the flavor. It is slightly sweet, but not too much. Nice summer beer riversideAK (1583), Shoreline, Washington, USA Aug 21, 2008 Gold cloudy pour with a decent head. Aromas of raspberry and wheat malt. Flavor is light with notes of raspberry seltzer and cereal grains. Light and unobtrusive. fata2683 (86), APO, New York, USA Aug 21, 2008 This smelled and looked really good. Cloudy, rasberry’s and yeast....but this dissapointed it’s too sweet which I thought with the rasberry’s being fresh and not artificial it would be sour and not sweet, but it was and it masks what may be a good wheat underneath. FlssmrBrewAlum (205), South Chicago Suburbs, Illinois, USA Aug 17, 2008 12 oz. bottle courtesy of another friend at a tasting. Several fruit beers, eh? This bad boy looked really good on pour, cloudy muted gold color with a decent head that unfortunately dissipates quickly. Lighter raspberry aromas that are light upon taste and mour sour than sweet (Always a plus). Some wheaty malt characteristics that are very enjoyable. More refreshing and lighter bodied than the other offering I had, but less taste and character. A decent fruit beer that I’d drink again.
