Dec 10, 2009 A: Poured from a 750 ml bottle like a wonderful sparkling grape juice. A monstrous 3 or 4 finger head quickly appears,then disappears almost as quickly. This one is very effervescent with non stop rows of bubbles racing to the top in straight lines all the way around the glass.
S: This one smells of raspberry, surprise surprise. It is actually a nice smell and not too overpowering. There is a hint of funk and alcohol if you really concentrate on what you’re smelling.
T: This one greets you with a blast of berry. There is not much sweetness here; it’s actually kind of tart. It finishes very dry with a hint of alcohol in the finish.
M: Crisp, Clean and Dry.

Nov 30, 2009 Draft. Pours deep red brown with a thin head. Light fruity raspberry aroma. The flavor is not too sweet with a pleasant raspberry fruitiness. Pretty good.

Oct 28, 2009 On tap at Phoenixville. Not knowing what to expect with this, it was very light tasting. Not like a raspberry lambic. It is deceivingly light in body, and can absolutely sneak up on you at 8%. A nice selection in the sample we chose. Took 2 more bottles home.

Sep 21, 2009 Ruby red color with an off white head. Aroma has some sour raspberries and sweet fruit. Flavor is sweet and tart raspberry with some syrup. Have had lightly carbonated and overly carbonated bottles. Needs more than less. Is a sticky mess when under-carbonated.

Sep 13, 2009 Purplish-red color with a fizzy pink head. Aroma of raspberry puree. A hint of tartness at the end, but it’s almost metallic. Some fruit upfront. Light and not much to this beer. Disappointing.

Aug 31, 2009 750 ml bottle poured into a wheat beer glass produced a light pink head that dissipated quickly and a beutiful dark purple body. Black raspberries dominated the aroma and flavor. Not quite as sweet as I antidipated. Has a short, sweet finish. Very good bottle-conditioned fruit ale.

Jul 19, 2009 Bottle at the Cuvee de Castleton release at Captain Lawrence. Pours a hazy red brown with some purple highlights. Not much of a head. Soft sweet raspberry aromas. Egads is this sweet. Cloying artificial raspberry flavors are overwhelming… very one dimensional.

Jul 8, 2009 Bottle. Pours a purple body with a white pink hued head. Raz and soda like sweetness. Spritz y with a moderate body that gives it some character. Its decent for what it is.
