Sampled some at Paul’s Hoboken gathering. Light pink in color with a medium pink head. Aroma: stinky socks, heavy pepper, tons of funk and moderate rasberry. Taste is rasberry, alot of funk, and horseblanket. Moderately tart, watery body. Although I wasn’t crazy about it apparently this one went over well with the other people who tried it.

Bottled. Beautiful light pink pour, one of the most colorful beers I’ve ever seen. Funky aroma with lots of poppy seed. Flavor is more tart, poppy, latent raspberry. Well balanced and very nice. I vehemently hate fruit wheat beers but this one does it very well.

I think handbottled, or a small growler, thanks to yobdoog. Pink in color, opaque and hazy, with some white head. Aroma is leathery, beery seeds, both sweet and sour. The flavor is the same, tart / sweet berries, leather, and a dry tart finish. Enjoyed this one.

Either a bottle or growler fill at Paul’s Hoboken Gathering: Cloudy pink with a light pink head. Funky aroma of old cheese, bacteria, and horse blanket. Fluffy carbonated feel. The flavor is less tart than anticipated after the aroma. Has a cleansing/mild tartness with a very subtle cranberry-like note. The raspberry seemed to have a more cranberry-character. Interesting and highly drinkable.
