3.1 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 13/20 mcberko (2188) - Vancouver, British Columbia, CANADA - JAN 29, 2012
Pours a clear dark amber with a medium off-white head. Aroma of raspberries, mild tartness and medium sweetness. Flavour of muted wild raspberries, with a perfect balance of sweetness and sourness, which cancel each other out. Sort of a floral, jasmine-like tone to the raspberries on the finish. Too bad the flavours are muted because the flavours themselves are quite nice. Good, but a little weak.
3.3 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 14/20 BigSound (27) - Florida, USA - JAN 23, 2012
Pours amber with a thin white head, just a tinge pink.
Sweet aroma, fresh raspberries, floral aromas
Raspberry comes through in the flavor, rose hips, very light hop finish.
Light body, medium high carbonation.
This is an ok beer, the raspberry is a little mutled but I guess its worth a try.
3.4 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 15/20 CampesinoTino (453) - Lake Stevens, Washington, USA - JAN 21, 2012
Pours ruby red with light rose colored head. The aroma is all fresh raspberries and tart fruits with just a hint of malted barley to indicate you’re drinking a beer and not carbonated fruit juice. The flavor is naturally tart and fruity with an emphasis on raspberries and a little bit of cranberry and grape. Toward the end there is somewhat of a toasted, bready malt presence. The body is well-carbonated with more tartness and berry flavors in the finish. Not a bad choice for summertime drinking although the raspberries are stronger in the aroma than the taste.

Amber foamy head, raspberry and roses aroma, raspberry flavor and tangy hop finish.
3.3 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 14/20 PotjeBier (422) - Amsterdam, NETHERLANDS - DEC 30, 2011
From notes: Tap @ Beer Temple. Red color, lots of pinkish foam. Aroma’s of fresh raspberries. Fruity flavor, not at all sweet. Light body. Finishes with some grainy malt and a light bitterness. Nice enough to try once.
3.1 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 12/20 theisti (2370) - Leawood, Kansas, USA - NOV 28, 2011
12 oz bottle purchased as a single at MDL in Overland Park, Kansas. Pour is a brown ruby, mostly clear with a light tan head. Aroma light nutty malt, a light touch of floral fruit sweetness, along with a bit of chemical vegetal. Taste is the nutty maltiness, then a brief tart raspberry, then back to the cooking malt brown sugar sweet flavor. In the back there is a bit the earthiness from the nose. Palate is medium bodied, with lower carbonation. Body thins out in the back, and reveals another brief whisper of the raspberry fruit. Overall, not a bad base beer, though the fruit was way subdued and not really what I expected "wild" to be. Just OK.
