Alaskan Raspberry Wheat is an American-style Wheat Ale that highlights the bright flavors and inviting aroma of more than 3,000 pounds of real raspberries added during fermentation.
Years of local demand through Alaskan’s Rough Draft program of draft-only releases and a Silver medal from the 2008 Great American Beer Festival make Alaskan Raspberry Wheat the perfect brew to launch the Alaskan Pilot Series.

Bottle at tasting, pours a cloudy orange with a red tinge and a small white head. Aroma of light raspberry, wheat and light bread. Flavour of the same, with a muted finish. Pretty standard and unspectacular - how good can you make this style?

This beer pours a hazy ruby-amber color with a medium off-white head that bubbles away steadily. Rings of lacing on the glass. Aroma of raspberry puree and wheat. Light, effervescent body with a mildly tart raspberry character that has notes of malt and wheat behind it. Touch of hops in the background. The finish is fruity with a short raspberry aftertaste. Just average overall.

Bottle @ home. Gorgeous ruby appearance with an off white head. Slightly tart, rich raspberry aroma. Well carbonated, somewhat tart raspberry, light wheat flavor with a light, tart, raspberry aftertaste.

Super hazy ruby-tinted copper body with a thin off-white head and a little oily head. Aroma of fresh raspberries, lime, light hops, malt and a touch of alcohol. Medium-bodied; Assertive wheat flavour with a very bitter raspberry and fruit flavour with some metal and malt behind. Aftertaste shows a lot of fruits, some sweetness and a little alcohol bite. Overall, a decent beer showing a lot of wheat, a ton of raspberries and some other flavours. I sampled this 65 cL bottle purchased from Brown Jug in Anchorage (Dimond Center), Alaska on 18-June-2011 sampled in my hotel room in Anchorage on 22-June-2011.

Bottle. Hazy strwberry colored beer with a pinkish cream colored head. Light raspberry and wheat aroma. Wheat and raspberry flavor. Mediumb odied. Raspberry and wheat lingers. Straight forward, but not good enough to win a silver medal in my oppinion.

Bottle from Bottleworks. Pours a dirty pink grapefruit with a slight pinkish head. Smooth raspberry aroma. Better than any I can remember. Medium minus body with creamy carbonation. The raspberry is the flavor. It’s part of the beer. It provides the bitter. The bitter carries on and on. Very good fruit beer.
