RCL (2025) - Waltham, Massachusetts, USA - MAY 25, 2009
Bottle of the ’07. Smells like a boozy fruit cocktail. Tastes like a nice tawny port. Pretty wild stuff.

scoth (427) - Fort Collins, Colorado, USA - MAY 18, 2009
Pours cloudy copper, with a thin white head, some lacing. Smells of alcohol, honey, caramel, raspberries and hay. Wow, it’s strong. Medium, sour and dry. Tastes of caramel, alcohol, raspberries, and citrus, very sour. More citrus and some grass in the aftertaste.

EHSRanders (1627) - Tjele, DENMARK - MAY 9, 2009
Bottle. Clear red/amber colour with virtually no head. Heavy aroma of rasberry. Sweet flavor.

Alphadelic (1470) - Portland, Oregon, USA - MAY 6, 2009
Pinky, rosy orange with a slight haze and a film of foam. Raspberries are all over this along with light Morello cherry notes. Nice and delicate. It tastes like a Victorian medicine. Sweet/bitter/herbal/rich. A little silly but wonderfully regressive. Hard to get your head around.

the flavor is outstanding it’s just overpowered by the strong alcohol taste

This was so much more interesting because this bottle appeared from nowhere in a closet I’ve never had beer in. I’m also 100% positive I did not buy it...for that I’m thankful. Cough syrup throughout, although that does diminish as it gets really warm. After an hour I almost enjoy it, and the raspberry ceases to be weird and tastes like actual fruit. No head to speak of, and the aroma is buried (or berried) in cough syrup.

jesperhammer (1530) - Copenhagen, DENMARK - APR 28, 2009
Bottle at Ølbaren, 27-APR-2009. Hazy orange, no head. Aroma of fresh raspberries. No artificial taste or smell. Notable ABV. Great experience. Best ever fruitbeer I have tasted (that says nothing). I really enjoy this. Wellmade.

mabel (4405) - Toronto, Ontario, CANADA - APR 17, 2009
[1970-20090124] Tap. Strawberry fruit yeast aroma. Hazy, light brown orange body with a long-lasting creamy white head. Lots of acidic strawberry and a bit of nail polish in the flavour. Medium body is a boozy kick to the teeth. Fruity, fair.

cheeta (1181) - Langå, DENMARK - APR 15, 2009
Raspberry aroma. Large, frothy, off-white head. Mostly diminishing longevity. Clear brown body. Flavor is heavy sweet and with raspberry. Medium palate.

Rustyham (1396) - Nashville, Tennessee, USA - APR 14, 2009
smells like a raspberry liqueur (chambourd) but looks like a hefeweizen with a slight purplish tint. Flavor is of alcohol, and nothing else. Nice try, but I wish it hadn’t cost so much. Bottled at Milam’s Market in Miami.
