Southern Tier Raspberry Wheat Beer

Brewed by Southern Tier Brewing Company
Style: Fruit Beer
Lakewood, New York USA

bottle thanks to ilovedarkbeer. pale yellow pour with a thin white head. raspberries on the nose. smooth with a not so bold raspberry flavor and a clean finish.

Pours a yellowish color with no head. NOse is raspberry yogurt and soda water. extremely watery mouthfeel. with a short finish that tastes fizzy and weak with some corn and a bit of raspberries and wheat. weakest thing I have had in a while.

nose of artificial raspberries, far too strong to even seem organic in any way. flavor is of subdued fruit and a strong dose of metallic laced elements. unpleasant and moreso unsatisfying.

I didn’t like this at all. Poured from bottle into pint glass. Smelled of raspberry and malt. First taste was ok, but as it sat in my mouth for a second it tasted of cheap plastic. I would compare the taste to that of chewing on a raspberry candle. We poured the rest of this out, wasn’t worth drinking.

Poured from a 12oz bottle and served in a shaker. This beer poured a clear golden with a short-lived head of thin, off-white foam. No lace. The aroma consisted of a strong dose of surprisingly fresh raspberries with an underlying note of malted wheat. The flavor included a dull mix of unsweetened raspberry and metallic wheat notes. Not all that unpleasent, but not really enjoyable, either. The mouthfeel was light-bodied and had moderate carbonation. Another ho-hum fruity wheat beer. I would have skipped it entirely, but it came in a variety pack.

Bottle from dkachur. Thanks! Aroma has notes of raspberry puree, wheat, and a plasticy sweetness? Pours hazy golden yellow with a nice big head and large bubbles. Softer flavors of lightly sweet wheat malt, raspberry essence, and a light crisp finish. Light bodied beer with not much going on, but it is by no means unpleasant.

Strong raspberry smell. Tastes like mix of cheap lager and raspberry kool-aid. I like it well enough to finish this bottle, but give the rest to my dog, if he will drink it.

12 oz bottle. Aroma is normal raspberry / yeasty. Golden pour which was absurdly overcarbonated, like a mistake was made during brewing. It was like chugging a soda. Flavor is strangely malty and a bit sour. A really weird combination that doesn’t work at all.
