Jun 29, 2009 Draugth@Julians, Providence, RI. Not praticularly fruity. Alcohooand yeast in the flavour. But seems less than 10%. Sugary and sweet, but fairly soft. Caramel, with not too many hints of fruit.

Jun 18, 2009 You can definately smell the berries on this but they are very balanced and enjoyable. Refreshing but with a nice kick from the high ABV.

Jun 16, 2009 Copper pour with nice white head that dissipates slowly. Aroma is caramel and bready malt with fruity esters, and oddly enough, cheesecake. Flavor is fruity with caramel and molasses. Fiery but manageable alcohol is also present. Palate is decently full with a sticky sugary sweetness and alcohol burn. Very interesting treat.

Jun 16, 2009 Pours a dark copper with a fizzy white head. Aroma of blueberries, blackberries, alcohol, bread, caramel, and cheesecake. Flavor holds similar qualities, but with the alcohol much more pronounced at the finish- the 10% is definitely evident. A good brew, nice sipper.

Jun 16, 2009 750 ml bottle poured a clear reddish amber with a lasting creamy ivory head. Aromas of blueberry, light blackberry and cookie. Palate was medium bodied crisp and tart. Flavors of blueberry, blackberry and carmel with a crisp dry bitter finish.

Jun 14, 2009 22oz bomber. Pours a a darker off pink color. Aroma is sweet and of various types of berries. Flavor is of fruits with a nice tart addition, but overall very sweet too. I’d like to have another one of these very soon.

Jun 13, 2009 Location: 750 ml bottle from Gilly’s, 6/13/09
Aroma: Smells like it is going to be pretty sweet, a nice mix of the berries as the label would suggest, not overly sweet though, and well mixed
Appearance: Dark copper color, with some red and brown color mixed in as well, little bit of whitish pink head
Flavor: A nice flavor, starts off with some fruitiness the tartness is there as well, and there is just enough hops there for balance
Palate: A nice mouthfeel here, very little alcohol bite, just drinks nicely
Overall Impression:
I’ve probably walked by this one a few hundred times and said "That looks interesting," but I’ve never actually bought one, then a friend picked one up today and we drank it, and it was pretty darn good. Doesn’t taste like a 10% beer at all.

Jun 9, 2009 I’ve had the chance to have both a bottle and from the tap. I’m happy to say that it is a perfect match. It’s a pink color beer with a white head. The taste is of berries with a smooth finish and it has a very fruity aroma. Very good dessert beer.
