2.9 AROMA 9/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 9/20 Jmacatiag (76) - , California, USA - AUG 1, 2010
Pours out a pink color, almost red with a light pink head. The head has good volume and retention. It smells strongly of raspberries. Not just not one variety of it, but several. It was fairly carbonated and has medium body and tastes very sweet. It opens up a mouthful of fruity, berries mainly. The sweetness carries through most of the beer and ends with a slight tartness. Not really my type of beer, but I enjoyed it.

Clouded reddish pour with an off-white head. Aroma was raaspberries. Taste was raspberries, sweetness. It was your average beer. Nothing special.
3.4 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20 Sigmund (3495) - Hafrsfjord, NORWAY - JUL 22, 2010
UPDATED: JUL 23, 2010 250 ml nip bottle, from Voldby Křbmandsgĺrd, Denmark. ABV is 4.3%. Cloudy pink colour, big off-white / pale pink head. Strong aroma of raspberry juice and raspberry jam. The flavour is sweet but still refreshing, with plenty of raspberry juice and just a hint of hops. I think they could with advantage have skipped the aspartame and artificial aromatics, though.
2.7 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 10/20 Naka (630) - Indiana, Pennsylvania, USA - JUL 17, 2010
Pours a soft pink with amber hues. Very cloudy. Fizzy with a spritzy white head. A sour raspberry lifesaver kind of aroma. Very artificial. A slight funk as well. The flavor is very sweet with a lot of raspberry character, but in the finish there is an aspartame / artificial sweetener note that is kind of off putting. Unfortunately, that is the flavor that lingers on the palate. The body is light and refreshing with a nice carbonation. Falls kind of flat because there is a lot about this that seems very chemically enhanced and artificial.
2.4 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 11/20 pintbypint (1481) - Edmonton, Alberta, CANADA - JUL 6, 2010
330ml brown bottle. Light yellow with a pinkish tint. Fast fading white cap, no lace. Sweet raspberry aroma. Sweet raspberry flavour, somewhat one dimensonail in flavour, despite a distant sourness. Medium carbonation, light bodied. Somehow refreshing, but not something to revist often.

1.7 AROMA 3/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 3/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 6/20 OleR (3510) - Oslo, NORWAY - JUN 29, 2010
0.25 L bottle bought at some Amsterdam supermarked. Red shaded blond head. Murkey, orange red body. Raspberry bon bon aroma. Nothing more, nothing less. Atificial sweetened raspberry flavor. Very sweet actually, slight acidic too, with a hint og fruit-candy and lemonade. Sticky texture. Thin. Sweet raspberry end. Hard to believe that the base beer has been aged on oak. Unsignificant.
