Apr 5, 2008 First impression: a watered down, weak raspberry cola. On the positive side, different, and carries a nice raspbery aroma. A very light chocolate taste detected. Rather subtle; expected much more.

Mar 23, 2008 This isn’t too bad. Fairly light, sweet and fruity, notes of raspberry soda and a little bit of toasted flavours. Cola, coffee and a hint of chocolate. A bit cloying and underwhelming; not the desired effect, I think. But I enjoyed it.

Mar 22, 2008 12 ounce bottle from dmac. Pours clear nutty brow with a little bit of beige head. No real resemblance of a porter. The aroma is a ton of raspberries and a bit of malt character. The flavor is weak chocolate and roast. A bit nutty. Raspberry syrup. Medium body. Extreme carbonation. Dry finish.

Mar 18, 2008 12oz. Bottle: Brown in color w/ a small beige head. Aroma is of raspberry & malts. Flavor is fizzy raspberry, almost artificial, like a cartoon version of a raspberry porter. Reminds me of a funky flavored lip balm, Bonne Bell anyone? Something wicked this way comes...I hope it takes this beer with it.

Mar 18, 2008 (Draught at Akkurat, Stockholm) Dark reddish brown colour with frothy pale brown head. Fruity, malty nose with raspberries and chocolate. Fruity, malty taste with notes of raspberries, dark chocolate and cocoa. Fairly dry, not very bitter. Decent porter with a distinct raspberry character, but hardly groundbreaking.

Mar 17, 2008 Bottle thanks to 17th floor. Dark brown with ruby red/purple like tint and large off-white head. Aroma is big sweet raspberries though some roast and/or chocolate malt breaks through. Flavor is once again sweet raspberries with some roasted malt and coffee, it isn’t completely bad, but it’s not all that good either. Medium body with spritzy carbonation. A darker flavored alcopop.
