Pale, keggy head. Huge raspberry aroma, perhaps a bit concentratey. Sharp carbonation, crisp palate. A bit thin, but a pleasant biscuitey body. Wheat evident, raspberry not dominant in the taste. A bit lagery, to be honest.

12 oz bottle from a mug. Really strong aroma of raspberries and hops. Unique aroma. Small white head. Light lacing. Very clear pour, light gold in color. Taste is acidic, light raspberry, light hops, very abrupt finish. Tastes watery. There is a fair amount of disconnect between the aroma and the taste. Body is very light, carbonation is a little heavy. I thought this would have more wheat character. That would have made for a much better beer. I’m not enticed to try this one again.

Draught. Pours sparkling, clear, yellow with almost no head. Acidic taste and light, dry, fizzy palate. Aromas have pungent raspberry, grain, flowers.

Bottle. Pours a very lightly hazed gold with a thin white head. Aroma is interesting. It’s spot on raspberry, almost a bit too perfect smelling. Like a raspberry candy with a touch of vanilla. Medium bodied, but very light. Creamy, a bit of vanilla. The big artificial raspberry flavors almost cover up the graininess, but not quite. Finishes with a touch of bitterness balanced by more sweet raspberry flavors. Nothing terrible, nothing great. Tastes like candy, like a bunch of ST’s flavored things.

(bottle) raspberry aroma, clear light yellow colour; small off-white head; clean and balanced flavour; no finish; the good part is that it is not cloyingly sweet like many fruit beers, the bad part is ifhgft is quite low on flavour

Clear golden, thin white head, very light lacing. Aroma is very sweet, lots of raspberries, syrupy, some grains and wheat. Flavour is cloyingly sweet, lots of raspberry syrup, wheat, very grainy, cereal. Sweet mouthfeel, light body, moderate carbonation. Finishes sweet, lingering.

This is your basic raspberry wheat beer, syrupy and cloying. Not very refreshing.

355ml bottle purchased at the LCBO in Peterborough, Ontario.

Opened on October 4, 2009.

No date.

On tap at Beer Temple. Yellow color, big head. Nose of fruits. Taste also of raspberry, strawberry. Some honey and malts. More wheatish in the finish with fruits still evident. Pretty good.

Pours a clear straw yellow, with white head and minimal lacing. Aroma is light raspberry and wheat. Taste is rather thin with a zest of raspberry and wheat. I would recommend this beer during the summer on a patio. Much like most wheat or fruit beers.
