| 3.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 17/20 | May 23, 2009 Dark red pour with a red-tinged head. Raspberry aroma hits you during the pour. Notes of sourness comes up at you also. You taste the sourness, then the sweetness. The sweetness lingers awhile, then leaves you a nice creamy mouthfeel. Having only a few fruit beers, this is the best so far. Leaves a nice lacing on the glass. Block (365), West Lafayette, Indiana, USA
| 4.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 3/5 | 18/20 | May 19, 2009 Dark pink-red pour. Strong raspberry and fruit aroma. Very sweet flavor, more like a juice than a beer. The raspberries dominate any malt or yeast flavors. gringo332 (238), Richardson, Texas, USA
| 4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 10/10 | 4/5 | 9/10 | 4/5 | 13/20 | May 16, 2009 Lively magenta body with a pink, foamy head. Aroma is strong raspberry with a slightly salty, sour raspberry taste. Strongly suggest mixing it with Guinness or something else smooth and creamy (at least once). Wish it had a higher ABV. ben4321 (984), Rockville, Maryland, USA
| 2.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 4/10 | 3/5 | 10/20 | May 15, 2009 Location: They seem to sell it at every bottle shop near me, but I’ve never actually purchased it, just drank it when others did.
Overall Impression:
I like my beer to taste like beer, call me crazy. If you call this your favorite beer, I’m guessing you’ve tried every variety of Smirnoff Ice as well...not bad, but not beer.
This stuff is to beer what a Manischewitz is to wine...it’s super sweet and fruity half-sister... chandler0201 (341), Durham, North Carolina, USA
| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 3/5 | 8/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | May 14, 2009 Purple pour with small pink head. Aroma and flavor of raspberries, strong and sugary, but delicious throughout. j12601 (1181), Poughkeepsie, New York, USA
| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | May 13, 2009 Bottle. Pours a dark crimson purple dark enough that it borders on a black in the right light. Large soft pink head. Smells like piles of raspberries, with a touch of champagne yeast. Smooth and sweet body, almost creamy. Tastes like candy, or a milkshake. I’m half expecting to pick raspberry seeds out of my teeth afterward. Touch of funkiness right before a very slowly developing tartness that lingers for a while. Way too sweet, but it is tasty. BeerBaby (62), , Tennessee, USA

| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 3/5 | 8/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Apr 28, 2009 Pours berry red with a decent sized pinkish head. Aroma is fruity rasberry puree. Flavor is big sweet and sour rasberry. Not bad for a dessert beer.
