Draught. Pours a hazy orange/pinkish straw, with a white head. Fruity aroma, lots of citrus and raspberries, wheat, some phenolic yeast notes, slightly spicy. Dry, light in body and bitterness, balanced CO2. Fruity, refreshing taste, citrus, raspberries, yeast, cloves. The finish is too spicy, with an almost overpowering smack of coriander seeds.

Draft @ Bishops Arms Savoy, Malmö. Pours a hazy orange reddish color with a small off-white head. Has a fruity wheat malty raspberry aroma. Fruity wheat malty spicy raspberry flavor. Has a fruity wheat malty raspberry finish.

On tap at O’Connors (in may) in Uppsala. It had a fruity smell with rasberries and yeast. Similar taste, tart and fairly dry. Interesting.

(Draught at MacKinlay’s Inn, Stockholm) Hazy orangey pink colour with frothy, white head. Fruity nose with raspberries, citrus and vanilla. Fruity, slightly tart taste with notes of raspberries, bread, citrus and pink grapefruit. Medium body, quite dry. More raspberries in the nose than in the mouth. A bit weird, but quite refreshing and definitely drinkable.

Tap @ Ardbeg Embassy Stockholm. Hazy reddish orange appearance with an off white head. Soapy tangerine, raspberry, a touch floral aroma. A bit dull raspberry juicy, bready wheat, a bit tangy fruity flavor. Bleh.

Draught at Bishop’s Arms, Östersund. Cloudy orange, small pale pink head. Aroma of raspberry jam. Dryish and slender with tart raspberries and vanilla. Clean, spritzy mouthfeel. No bitterness. Fairly refreshing, but not something I want to drink a lot of.

On tap at Ardbeg Embassy, July 2012. Hazy pinkish with a large and firm head. Aroma and taste of raspberries, wheat, yeast and some spices. A bit om the sour side with medium carbonation. Quite refreshing and drinkable but with a thin finish.

Nej, det här var inte en öl i min smak, den påminde lite om en spointanjäst öl fast utan någon finess. Smaken var jäst och hallon i en inte allt för lyckad kombination. Doch får den några bonsu poäng för innovation.

On draft Interesting and different and a lot of strawberry notes. Light and good for summer but it feels a bit off character and after the strawberries have disappeared a rather uninteresting taste appears - like normal simple pils ---Rated via Beer Buddy for iPhone

Draught. Creamy white good mostly lasting head. Moderate malty and light hoppy spicey aroma. raspberry? Maybe! Light bitter flavor. Some week raspberry notes. Average light bitter finish. Oily palate.
