Red pour, small pinkish head. Sweet berry Aroma with a touch of wheat and tartness. The tartness is stronger in the finish, but by no means is this a proper Berliner. The sugar added dumbs this down enough for a novice beer drinker.

Pours a hazy pink-amber colour with a pinkish-white cap, average retention and not much lacing. Beautiful dessert aromas of the berries with a certain creaminess and sugars. Even the malts gives a pastry kind of feel to it. The taste starts off with a mild sourness, then it calms down showing off the yeast and very light raspberries in the background. Berry Smooth alright, and quite nice at it. A good fruity Berliner Weisse.

330ml bottle. Pours a slightly hazy red-pink with a medium, fizzy, short lived, pink head that fully dissipates. Sweet aroma of raspberry and vanilla with light wheat in the background. Sweet fruity flavour of raspberry, lactose and wheat malt with a dry, mildly tart finish. Light body with a watery texture and average carbonation. Refreshing.

Bottle: Poured a pale reddish color ale with a medium foamy head with OK retention and limited lacing. Aroma of tart berry notes with some residual sugar notes. Taste is a nice mix of tart berry notes with some lactose notes is refreshing. Body is light with medium carbonation. Limited complexity but well brewed and refreshing.

Draught at Red Racer Restaurant, Vancouver
Hazy red amber color. Strong berry aroma. Weak mouthfeel, light acidity, mild berry juice, and a hint of vanilla.
Timid.

Hazy, purplish-pink. No head. Light berry nose. Tart, berryish, fairly simple but I kind of like the character. Light, tart, fruity.

On tap at Central City on Beatty, pours a hazy reddish pink with a small white head. Aroma brings out lots of vanilla and a touch of raspberries. Flavour is along the same lines, with subdued vanilla, tart raspberry and a touch of lacto. Weak, lifeless body, with bad harmony. Not good.
