Dark amber with a rose hue. Smaller pink and cream tinged head. Creme and raspberry/strawberry candy aromas. The first sniff near threw me off my chair. Some rotting grass is underneath the candy. Flavors are a bit more forgiving. A starburst start with lightly sour strawberries. Some wheat joins in the middle, but the candi is still being chewed. It dries out slightly in the finish, but there is still plenty of sweetness clinging to the tongue. No real off flavors and not your typical raspberry wheat. A general fruit wheat ale.

On draught at the Appleton Fox Mall location. Pours a semi-clear golden amber brew with an off-white head with some pink highlights that quickly dissipates to a thin off-white head. Aroma of golden grain malt with some raspberry koolaide and grassy hops. Taste is light to medium bodied, extra carbonation with more raspberry fruit flavors that overpowers any grain malt flavors. Finish is semi-sweet with a light berry aftertaste that lingers around after the finish.
