Jun 19, 2008 Honestly, this beer is delicious. Yes, it’s very sweet, but there is just enough bitterness in there to make in manageable. Tastes like raspberry sorbet. This would make an awesome desert beer.

Jun 15, 2008 Berry red color with a medium slowly dissipating pink head that laces as it fades. Aroma of raspberries and sweet malt. Taste of raspberries, sugar and sweet malt. Fizzy mouth feel, very sweet and tart, decent fruity beer.

May 31, 2008 Bottle shared by EDA. This is surprisingly decent, I must say. No cough syrup or fake fruit flavors to be found. Syrup, perhaps, but it does indeed taste like raspberry. Some cheesiness, herbs. A bit of cherry and saltiness. I’ve had far worse.

Deep red, no head. Huge raspberry aroma. Big sweet raspberry body, no lambic kick (see the peche for a contrast). Lightly fizzy in the mouth. Refreshing, sweet, not too comples. Fruit-juicy. Some soft light grain creamy body too.

May 6, 2008 Alright, my wife loves this beer because it’s like raspberry soda. I don’t like this beer for the same reason. Hah only 2.8% alcohol. How am I going to get my wife hammered with that!?! This makes me not like this beer even more. Aroma was like a candy store with raspberry air fresheners. Was that a head or was is just carbonation from the fruit soda. Well just call it a head I guess. I can’t pick out anything but raspberries in the flavor. It tastes like you are drowning in a bag of sugar while someone is shoving raspberries down your throat. I guess my idea of a dessert beer is some Rogue chocolate stout or a nice cold Rochefort. I still have to give it alright marks because the wife doesn’t want me to slam it too bad.
