A fine mixed of sweet and sour raspberry. This has been one of my favorites since my first taste.

The best friut beer out there. People are surprise when I tell them it’s beer. Natural rasberry flavor. Very light. Great red color. One of the very best.

Back in the day I used to love this beer. But over the months I think as my tastes have changed from the sweet to the savory, It’s been about 5 years since I’ve have this and it was just incredibly sweet. Too much for my tastes now.

A classic. This beer is a great introduction to those girls who’ll tell you there’s never been a beer they’ve liked. They’ll even deny that this is a beer because they like it! This is great to sip after dinner for those that don’t want something with ABV >10%.

OK, this stuff doesn’t even taste like beer or alcohol. It tastes like the best raspberry jam you’ve ever had. Pours a vibrant red raspberry color with a thin pink head. Smells like fresh raspberry jam. Mouth feel is tart but not super "grippy"; a bit syrupy. This is a very tart/sweet drink with very heavy fruit flavor. There is no semblance of a "beer" taste here. I really really like this stuff for a summer picnic outdoors. You can find it at lots of different bottle stores and I’ve heard it’s on tap at a few places -- I’d love to try that. This is the sweet center of a Godiva raspberry truffle in bottled liquid form.

First swig is very fruity...by the 3rd I am almost chugging this stuff.... unfortunately, i drink it to fast & want another but this beer is considered a treat for me due to it’s cost...so i started a batch of my own - guess i will find out in a couple years if mine is any good...if you do not like beer - like me - this is a good one.

Dark raspberry color, medium pinky head. Fairly carbonated. Crisp with lingering aftertaste. Semi-complex but mostly tart rasberry flavor. Refreshing.

Deep berry color with little head. Nice rich berry flavor without the sweetness of a liquor or mead. Very smooth and easy to drink. Tart sour finish. I was pleasantly suprised by this one. I think it would also be great to cook with.

Nice color and aroma. Very tart/sweet raspberry flavor. My first response was that this was like drinking a raspberry lifesaver.

Absolutely my favorite beer of all time. It’s got a wonderful red color, not much head, but fizzes like champagne. Nice raspberry flavor with a little bitterness. At $8+ a bottle, you won’t want to waste it, so plan to share it with a friend. Serve cold. It’s wonderful.
