kujo9 (1043), North Ridgeville, Ohio, USA Nov 22, 2004 Bottle: Lasting white head on a fairly clear deep golden body. Raspberry immediately in the nose. I’m guessing they used puree, but it smells like fresh crushed raspberries. Very light wheat malt aroma and very clean Am. wheat. Well balanced w/ a light raspberry flavor. Wheat malt and raspberry very well balanced with each other, also balanced well with hops. lIghtly tart. Clean finish is raspberry flavored as is aftertaste. Medium carbonation, lighter but not watery body, smooth m/f. Very good wheat with fruit, although I’m not wild about raspberries. They are not overpowering in the flavor & add a nice dimension to the beer. Only downfall is that is it only 2 dimensional, wheat malt and raspberries. hotstuff (3019), Indiana, USA Aug 4, 2004 Bottle. Large sized creamy and smooth white head with fine-small sized bubbles that mostly diminished. Fast rising carbonation, transparent and a yellow hue. Malty, light hops, sweet and some fruity notes in the aroma. Flavor was sweet, malty and some hops in the finish. Smooth mouthfeel, light bodied beer and fair lacing. thedm (3405), Fort Wayne, Indiana, USA Aug 4, 2004 This bottled brew poured a large sized head of finely sized long lasting white colored bubbles that left behind a fair lacing. The body was transparent carbonated and orange in color. It had a mild malt aroma with a slight orange scent and there was very little is any wheat notes to it. The mouth feel was initially mildly tingly and finished smoothly. The flavor contained smooth notes of malts and hops and was slightly astringent.
