Bottle courtesy of AirForceHops. Fresh raspberry aroma. Slightly hazed straw gold with a minimal head. Raspberry and light wheat malt flavor, as well as a sharp soapy lactic note. LIght body, moderate carbonation, dry finish.

All these years I’ve passed over this on the shelf, I never knew there was a Raspberry version. Pours a crystal clear deep golden color with a smallish white head that quickly dissipates to a cap. Smells of raspberry syrup mostly. It’s a powerful raspberry aroma, I can’t smell any beer underneath. The flavor is a hint tamer on the raspberry front. The flavor brings spicy wheat, a bit of earth and butter to the mix. Medium to light body with a moderate level of carbonation and a sweet slick mouthfeel. All these years and even the anticipation couldn’t make this a great beer. Its kind of one dimensional and frankly a bit boring, not my cup of beer.

12 ounce bottle from Nikkis Liquors. Pours a clear golden color with a large frothy white head. Decent head retention. Aroma of tart raspberries and a weird almost cheese-like note. The taste is sweet, artificial raspberries, a spicy note and wheat. Thin-medium bodied. Not very good.

Another 12 oz bottle Purchased from Bert’s Better Beers, Hooskett, NH. Poured into a pint glass. Fast dissipating fizzy head, tons of carbonation in this one. Yet, the head went down to nothing with no lace. Nose of lots of berries. I get almost nothing but tart berries with a light wheat backbone. Clean and crisp finish. I wasn’t expecting much from this…. And it was a bit better than I thought it would be.

Pours gold into a shaker. No head. Wheat and raspberry puree aromas. Raspberry seeds and wheat upfront with a nasty finish.
