Stars Above is a refreshing sour ale brewed with raspberries. It pours a nice hazy yellow with a slight purple hue. With just one sip of Stars Above, the sweet raspberry flavor will hit you right off the bat. That sweetness is balanced by the tartness that kicks on the back-end, culminating in the perfect summertime beer.

Lightly sweet flavour with subtle acidity, more zesty citrus, a little lemon juice, grapefruit pith. Light bodied with spritzy carbonation. Clean finish with more light acidity, lemony tartness. Quenching.

Flavour is composed of rustic wheaty grains, grain husks, tart raspberry fruit. Little rough round the edges. Palate is frothy carbonation, tart, crisp finish. Decent raspberry character.

Can shared at level 42. It pours cloudy pinkish orange with a thick white head. The aroma is sweet - sour, tangy, fresh raspberry, raspberry pip, lemon sherbet and candy. The taste is crisp, tart, fresh, juicy raspberry, citric acidity, decent mouth - pucker, minerals, sherbet and grapefruit juice with a dry finish. Medium body, soft carbonation and foamy mouth - feel. Pretty fresh, tart and tasty. Nice one.

Can received in trade from blutt59, thanks for the opportunity! Slightly hazy deep golden with a pink hue to it, good sized bubbly white head recedes very quickly. Big raspberry on the nose with some lemony tartness there too. Tart but not bracingly so, the raspberry comes off a bit sweet and counters the lemon pretty well. Slight sweet bready malt. Not bad, a little tame for my tastes but I could seem some of these on a hot Texas night.
