Commercial Description:
In Belgium, one of the world's greatest brewing regions, the tradition of blending fruit with beer has achieved cult status. We decided to create an American interpretation that we present as Oxford Raspberry. The beer is light and refreshing and finished with real raspberries giving it a fruity aroma, and quenching tartness.

12oz bottle, courtesy of HighGravity. Dark amber, creamy off white head. Aroma held light notes of raspberry seltzer and touches of citrus and wheat. Balanced raspberry and soft wheat flavors run from start to finish. Light bodied and thin, soft carbonation, fruity finish. Disappointed in this local showing...

Bottle. Pours a hazy amber hue with an average frothy white head that mostly lasted with fair lacing. Good wheat and rasberry aroma. Medium body with soft carbonation. Medium well balanced fruity flavor with a good sweet finish of moderate duration. Good soft drinkable beer.

aroma is wheaty, hints of raspberry. poured redish color with white head. flavor is refreshing spritzy with some raspberry and wheat. easy drinking, summer time fruit beer. nothing complex, but it is what it is type of beer. goes over well with the women I’m sure while still not being a malternative.

Pours an amber color with a slight pink tint to it and a white head. Aroma is light with caramel malts, wheat, and raspberry. Flavor is also light with caramel, wheat, and raspberry. No lingering flavor. Not good.

Yellow pour with an over the top head. I taste the wheat beer but the raspberry is seriously lacking. This is not a bad brew just lackluster

Short small head, off white. Smells of sugar and raspberry. Very over the top with the fruit and sweetness. Simple.
