pink, white head, soft sweet raspberry aroma, rich raspberry flavor, not too sweet, hint of tartness, better than your average raspberry beer

Aroma: 6/10; Appearance: 5/10; Flavor: 5/10; Palate: 5/10; Overall: 10/20
Rating: 2.7/5.0
Score: *4
-------- /> The score was calculated based upon the notes and an old scoring system.

Fizzy, hazy, rosy-apricot colored. Understated raspberry flavor, with sour-citric west coast hopping. Finish was smooth for the most part, with hop bitterness hanging on through the mid-term. Well-balanced for a specialty brew.

Funky aroma - akin to day old socks - faint reminiscense of rasberry. Cloudy, orangerish appearance makes up for the aroma however. Faint rasberry flavor lasts throughout - a little bit too artificial for my taste. Will give another try sometime.
