3.3 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 14/20 Vignale (1366) - Malmö, SWEDEN - JAN 16, 2013
Bottle from barley wine cph. Clear raspberry scent, but less in the taste than expected. But that is probably to it´s advantage a the maltstructure is pretty regular for a pale ale and not a lambic one. Really drinkable.

There is more aroma than flavor. Trying to get a a strong raspberry flavor we would be difficult. Not much of a finish but a good fruit beer overall.

3.3 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 13/20 alcaponejunior (348) - Texas, USA - DEC 22, 2012
Ruby colored and clear, one finger slightly pink head and ok lacing.
Aroma is raspberries, malts (biscuit, bready), a little toffy.
Flavor is fruity, dryly so, with a crisp, clean raspberry flavor that compliments the maltiness but doesn’t overpower. Hop bitterness is minimal.
Easy to drink, light, with a dry finish.
It’s quite tasty, an easy drinker good for an outdoor afternoon.
2.7 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 12/20 UncleKorm (249) - Colorado Springs, Colorado, USA - DEC 6, 2012
Bottle poured a crystal clear amber w/ a ruby tint and small white quickly diminishing head. Light aroma of berries. Initial flavor is light acidic w/ a light sour finish. Taste is fruity berries and light bread. While the flavor is pleasant it is not a complex beer, light easy drinker. Watery to dry in texture and lively carbonation.
3.9 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 5/5 TASTE 10/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 15/20 southernolkart (50) - - OCT 28, 2012
Poured from a 12 oz bottle into stemmed tulip glass. Aroma is malty with a slight raspberry hint. Color I a very dark amber. Flavors of malt and tart raspberry. A very dry finish. I normally prefer a little more sweetness in fruit beers. High carbonation sort of mask the flavors. Ok, after warming up and losing some carbonation, this is tasting better. The bitter dry finish is either going away or I'm getting used to it. Would definitely drink this again.

Poured into a tullip shaped glass from a 12 ounce bottle. Pours a nice amber color that has a sparkling head to it. Aroma is clean and crips of raspberries and some sourness. Flavor seems light overall. You can taste the raspberries and some sourness. However it is very carbonated and that takes away from it.

Draft at source. Deep amber with a splash of red/pink. Aroma is a nice tart background raspberry with some wheat malt. Flavor falls off with a bitter raspberry and water-soaked wheat malt. Quite dry with a bitter raspberry finish.

Bottle to pint. Looks decent; a ruby tint that indicates the presence of raspberries. Smells and tastes alright, but not special. Obvious fruit influence, but nothing much beyond that. Average on the palate. Alright, not great.
