does not count swank2i2 (9), Alma, Michigan, USA Feb 23, 2005 Not one I would drink all the time but my wife thought it was the bomb. Real raspberries make this beer unique from others I’ve had. Nice touch to details
MI2CA (1101), Noblesville, Indiana, USA Oct 6, 2008 6oz sample at MTS - Aroma of sticky raspberries, wheat and brown sugar. Pours transparent pink-brown with a small head and decent lacing. Flavor is natural raspberry, old wheat and caramel malt. Palate is tart and tasty. Not bad for what it is. I find it interesting that the others raters say it tastes "artificial". I found it comparable to Founders Rübæus. Silphium (2050), Lansing, Michigan, USA May 26, 2008 On tap at Crunchy’s, East Lansing. The amount of berries per batch is not necessarily correlated with quality, as this beer supports. An oddly sweet wheat beer with molded hay and fermented fruits and even a hint of wet socks thrown in for good measure. Not offensive, but cloying and flawed. SpudClampDawg (960), Jasper, Indiana, USA Jul 16, 2006 Pours and orange/pink with no head. Flat carbontation throughout. The nose is all fruit - no balance at all. The body is all fruit as well with some slight caramel balance but not much. The raspberries come off artificial tasting. Blah. hennes (932), Fountain, Michigan, USA Mar 26, 2003 Powerful, sweetish odor of razbries and bubblegum, which worried me, but the fruity tatse turns out to be protean - elusive and sippery, but very real and not as gaggingly artificail as the aroma suggests.
