Shakespeare Regans Raspberry Weiss

Brewed by Shakespeare Tavern & Brewery
Style: Fruit Beer
Auckland, New Zealand

Draught at Shakespeare Tavern, Auckland. Golden beer with a head that completely disappeared. Sourish aroma with raspberry notes that leaves much to the imagination. The palate is fizzy and sour and overall a strange beer.

Draught as part of the tasting tray at the SOBA monthly meeting, a slight haze to the gold in the glass. An aroma of sour apple, must akin to cider. A this and sour palate with only a touch of raspberry (if you try hard to sense it). More of that young apple, whose sourness only increases in the swallow. "Odd" is as kind as it gets.

Draught at brew pub. Pale golden beer with a dulled fruity aroma. The flavour is bitter and sour fruit. Overall an average speciality weissbier.

(On tap) Slightly hazy golden with a tiny head. Basically no head. Thin body with weak and a little artificial raspberry notes before a dry finish. A sloppy brew. 080208
