opaque amber, thin white head, strong sweet berry aroma with the blueberry blending well with the raspberry, mostly berry flavor with lots of sweetness hiding any hefe character, too much berry and not enough beer

called razzleberry wheat as their seasonal fruit beer. cloudy orange gold with a clingy creamy white head and some random webby lacing. musty aroma with notes of orange and raspberry puree. the flavor is wheaty and a touch lemony tart with a yeasy aftertaste. the raspberry is sweet and comes off as artificial and medicinal. the medium body has some substance and syrupy thickness with a creamy mouth feel. 5/3/5/3/9/2.5

Cloudy red orange color with nice white head and lacing. Nice raspberry nose and flavor. Light body and creamy texture with a sweet finish. Nice beer.
