750 mL bottle thanks to the birthday boy, drunk 11/28/15.
Deep cherry flesh colored raspberry red. Auburn. White head fades to ring. Clarity is low.
Raspberry seed, light vanilla and cream. Smells funky, fruity and clean.
Dry, raspberry seeds, light vanilla, some honey and icing. Well, there isnt a lot of complexity, but the raspberry is great, with tight carbonation and some earthiness.

750ML. Thanks AFH! Very cloudy, almost murky reddish brown. no head. There’s a little bit of glue smell but there’s raspberry in here, a little graham cracker, has a lot of dessert elements. Very dry, really nice. makes me wanna have some more Garrison beers.

Bottle from the Brewery Slightly hazy orange amber color with a decent sized long lasting bubbly white head. Big raspberry nose as soon as the cap comes off. Tart lemons and a touch of nail polish round this out. Huge raspberry flavor light earthy funk light body big carbonation. Decent brew.

750 ml bottle purchased at the brewery. Amber color with a slight pink hue. Good Lord this is highly carbonated! Slow canted pour produced massive head that lasted forever. Aroma is like they let the brew age on raspberries (nice dry hopping), very fresh with tons of Berry. Berry comes out in a big way.
The flavor shows the Brettanomyces and a spicy display of the Sorachi Ace hops. Spicy hop bite with a moderate amount of bitterness. In the very backend of the sip the Berry is just a hint with more of the herbal / spicy hop overriding the berries. The raspberry is way more notable in the aroma.
This is a very fun brew with a creative recipe. Overall different and pleasant enough to drink but I’m not convinced it is worth $15.00 a bottle. However, if you have a chance to try it, do so.
