Tap at the Watering Hole. Orange red colour, small white head, tiny bubbles. Aroma is raspberry, not much else but nice enough. Taste is raspberry not sweet but not that interesting. Nice though. Slight sharpness but not that sour. Spritzy and nice texture. Ok.

One of those ho - hum style beers that turns on it’s head as you get through the pint. Soft tangy raspberry and cream nose. Very fruity and a tad non beer like, but the flavours work well in context. More tangy than funky with a short finish.

On tap at the brewery. Amber/copper color, towards reddish brown. Rather tall head. Fragrant raspberry aroma with a touch of malt in there too. Strong raspberry flavor, but neither oversweet nor overpowering. Decently sour. Refreshing, not syrupy. Very nice for the type, and not too sweet! Surprisingly good. Their red ale is the base, it seems. Slightly nutty, amber malt flavor at back.
