500ml bottle. Clear orangey golden colour, white bubbly foam head and aroma of sweet syrupy raspberry. Taste is fruity raspberry mixed with biscuity malt plus some chalky dry bitterness. Light bodied, medium carbonation, drying bitter finish. Quite OK.

Cask @ The Benjamin Huntsman, Sheffield [161013]
Golden blonde, clear, dense white head, some lacing
Aroma - Nice really fresh real raspberry aroma, really fresh, no artificial notes
Taste - Fresh raspberry, not too much, some raspberry bitterness too, light pale malts underneath, good stuff
Palate - Light body ,quite sweet palate. Finish as main flavour, little bitter linger. perhaps a tad over bitter here
Overall - Biased with this rate as I really like raspberry and they were real in here, even with a bitter edge you get from the seeds. It might benefit from a tiny hint more sweetness in the malt background

Bottle at a ChrisO Tasting - London. Pours clear, very pale yellow with a fine, bubbly head. Quite a nice raspberry character in the aroma, thank you very much. Light to medium sweet flavor with fairly true raspberry notes and light doughy malts. Light bodied with fine carbonation. Lots more raspberry to finish, fairly juicy, with light hay bitterness. Nice raspberry integration on this one.
