Bottle from a friend in Wisconsin. Wax top 750 ml. Pours a deep dark red with a big creamy pink head. Cool look. Aroma is amazing. Fresh raspberries and more fresh raspberries. More sweet than tart aroma. Wow! Tart up front quickly fades into sweet raspberries that sit and linger on the palate. Tart comes back with another sip. Oh man this is awesome. Some oak dryness and ever so slight bitter keep this from being too sweet. Light to medium mouthfeel--expected lighter--with no hint of alcohol (pretty low anyway). This is pretty awesome.

Bottle. Pours reddish brown with a big white head. Nose is all raspberry syrup. Taste is much the same. Sweet and tart simultaneously. Palate is full with a lovely carb. Delicious but maybe a little one dimensional.

New Glarus rarely makes its way down to Georgia, thus I jumped when provided the opportunity to order this brew. Pours a beautiful ruby red. This lightly carbonated beer tastes like a raspberry jolly rancher.. All raspberry everything. Interesting, but not sure of a scenario where I would reach for this brew. Glad for the opportunity, but will probably never drink this beer again. Brick Store Pub - Decatur, GA

Bottle from Ben, thanks! Pours dark reddish brown with low head. Smell is sweet dark fruits, taste is sweet raspberries with nice acidity on the finish. way to sweet, good for a dessert drink or breakfast.

750’ml bottle to snifter (thanks jmborggren). Looks good; a fairly transparent copperish amber with thin off-white lacing. Smells solid; tart raspberries. Tastes like it smells, only better, with a nice mouthfeel. Damn tasty!

Thanks Adam for sending this one to me! He’s sending more of these so figured I’d crack this one open and give it a try. IT’s currently 9 months old so I hope it’s still great!
A - Very much filtered with no sediment at all, gorgeous blood red appearance with a 2 finger head.
S - The nose has nothing like fake raspberry syrup. It is pretty much all earthy sort of muddy / grassy fruit nose.
T - Wow. Simple yet so complex. The malt or beer itself sort of takes a back seat to this gigantic raspberry taste. It’s a handful of raspberries in a glass with carbonation. That’s the best way to put it.
M - Nice big mouthfeel on the swish. tart and dry finish. very grape-skin like as I rub my tongue over my teeth
O - Very drinkable. Simply ann incredible fruit beer! Possibly the best I’ve ever had.
