On tap at the brewpub. Golden yellow with a thick white head. Some chill haze present. Strong raspberry aroma without a sickeningly sweet chemical fruit flavor. Fairly decent balance. Nice hop level results in a dry bitter finish. Good attempt at a style I generally dislike. As with all the beers here, great lacing in the glass.

Light yellow and clear in the glass. Good carbonation. Aromas are overwhelmingly of sweetened raspberry. Taste bears this out, with a raspberry popsicle kind of flavoring. Thin on the palate. What wheatiness there is to the beer fades long before the raspberry lets go of your tongue.
