kazin (55) - Malmö, SWEDEN - MAY 8, 2013
Sample at CBC 2013. Amazing appearance, with an incredibly complex flavor of hops, raspberry and sweet fruit. Amazing!

VsXsV (1222) - Linköping, SWEDEN - MAY 7, 2013
Draught at CBC ’13. Hazy deep copper liquid with small to medium light brown head. Aroma of raspberries, vanilla, toffee, caramel, candy and raw sugar. Taste is medium sweet and light to medium bitter with notes of raspberries, toffee, bread, biscuit and dark fruit. Full bodied with low to medium carbonation and really sticky mouthfeel. Awesome stuff, lives up to the hype.

HenrikSoegaard (9146) - Randers, DENMARK - MAY 7, 2013
Sample at CBC. Creamy lightbrown good mostly lasting head. Amber colour. Moderate malty and hoppy aroma with exstremely nice raspberry notes. Heavy bitter very powerfull complex flavor. Long excellent heavy bitter finish. Fantastic palate. Just worldclass.

mcberko (4056) - Vancouver, British Columbia, CANADA - MAY 7, 2013
On tap at CBC, pours a pinkish ruby red with a small beige head. Aroma of intense raspberries--so fresh and potent, no sign of alcohol - exceptional aromatics. Flavour brings out liqueur-coated pungent raspberries, and alcohol. Like a liqueurized raspberry purée. Very potent, with a very warming effect. Delicious stuff.

JanLaursen (2155) - Copenhagen, DENMARK - MAY 6, 2013
From tap, at CBC 2012. Hazy orange red with a frothy tan head. Intriguing nutty aromas of toffee and peanutbutter mixed with raspberry accents. Medium to heavy sweet flavor, leathery, fruity, with a creamy chocolatey texture and very soft carbonation. Medium bitter finish. One of a kind, and without a doubt the most interesting fruit beer I’ve had.

caesar (3944) - Bunnik/Utrecht, NETHERLANDS - MAY 6, 2013
Tap @ CBC2013. Slight hazy reddish copper color, short head. Aroma of lots of fruit, raspberry, caramel, some wood, bit alcohol. Very fruity in taste as well, sirupy. Almost like a fruit liquor. It’s one of the top 50 beers back in the old days already, so it has build a reputation for me. It’s very nice, but it doesn’t live up to the epic expectation. Good I usually dont have expectations anymore with beers.

haukur (1009) - Reykjavik, ICELAND - MAY 6, 2013
Favorite of CBC 2013. Was really aware of the hype and I thought this would never ever live up to, I was wrong! Raspberries, leather, sweets, dough, loads going on in the complex aroma. Very big and full bodied. Heavy sweet raspberry finish. Insane brew

Benzai (4344) - Oirschot, NETHERLANDS - MAY 5, 2013
Draught @ CBC 2013. Hazy reddish color, small beige head. Smell and taste malts, a lot of sweetness and raspberry with a touch of sourness and alcohol in the finish. Full body, medium carbonation.

kermis (2483) - The Hague, NETHERLANDS - MAY 5, 2013
Draft at CBC 2013. Pours hazy red brown with a ring tan head. Aroma of raspberries, toffee, caramel, red berries, cough medicine and leather. Flavor is heavy sweet and light bitter, just too sweet for my liking. Full bodied with soft carbonation.
