omhper (10728), Stockholm, Sweden Feb 4, 2002 Red to gold in colour. Sweet and bland with sweetish raspberry flavour. More like an alco-pop than a credible fruit beer. argo0 (6230), Washington DC, USA May 4, 2002 Very light beer, with raspberry flavoring. I guess they’re trying to attract mainstream drinkers in search of something a little bit different. kp (6200), Woodstock, Georgia, USA Sep 1, 2007 Date: 11/04/2006

hopdog (4648), Lansdale, Pennsylvania, USA Nov 9, 2004 Poured a lighter golden color with a huge, frothy (5 finger) head. Some floaties. Strong Raspberry aroma. Raspberry in the taste (not as strong as the smell) and some malts. Fizzy and light body. hopscotch (4588), Vero Beach, Florida, USA Aug 26, 2003 Sparkling clear, light amber/dark golden lager. Small, fizzy, white head.
The aroma is not really heavy on fruit. Very subtle raspberry.
Fruity and tart flavor with a whisper of malt. Balanced nicely by lightly bitter hops.
Light-bodied with a fizzy mouthfeel. Short, crisp, tart finish. A touch grassy at the very end.
Very nice brew for the style.
