Commercial Description:
An Americanized version of a Belgian fruit beer, bearing an orange-yellow color with the delicious aroma of raspberry. We blend raspberry's natural flavor with rich malt sweetness derived from a mix of wheat and malted barley.

Had this one on draught at the brewpub in Orland Park, Illinois. Pours a cloudy, dark yellow color with a pervasive thick white head, nose of baked bread and raspberry jam, lightly wheaty with lots of breadiness and fruitiness. Tart in the end. Pretty good.

Lightly hazy and pale yellow in color with some rising bubbles. Aroma consists of strawberries, raspberry jam and rose tea. Flavor ensues with a sugary charge. Lemon bite in a small sense and something suspiciously familiar with raspberry flavored seltzer water. Better than expected, for what it’s worth.

Cloudy and wheat-colored with a ring for a head. Raspberry aromas (go figure). Sour fruit flavors, with the berries tasting like an integral part of the beer (as opposed to their Blueberry Wheat). Dry finish. Refreshing. <br /><br /><font size=-4><a href=http://www.ratebeer.com/Places/ShowPlace.asp?PlaceID=1912><u>Harrison’s Brewing Company, Orland Park, IL</u></a><font size=-1><br />

<i>Draft sampler.</i> Well, there’s certainly raspberry here, but what else. A Belgian would be inherently fruity in taste, and just adding an overwhelming flavor like raspberry would just blow it away. Cloudy like a wit, no doubt, and as I go through the sampler while writing this, I am starting to pick a bit staled hops taste that I wouldn’t expect. Bland, but certainly no disaster.

Light straw color. Raspberries are noticable in the nose. The raspberries really came through, and to a plus they tasted real. Not too much backing up the fruit taste however.
