The base beer is the Wheat Grand Cru with raspberries added before secondary fermentation.
Raspberry Grand Cru has a vibrant red colour and a fine white head. The beer has a full raspberry fruit nose, a balance of sweet and sour fruit on the palate and a wildly refreshing zesty finish.

Bottle. Pours hazy reddish amber with a fading frothy off-white head. Aroma of sweet and quite tart raspberries. The fruit tartness is there in the taste too but it is less pronounced under a wheat beer thatโs got little body and that seems to add little sourness of its own. Nice balance. A bit of almond and jam emerge late. Pretty good - the current score of 2.66 is odd.

Bottle @ Bow Bar, Edinburgh. Grainy, fruity raspberry. High carbonation. Slight sour. Tastes like a boring wheat with added raspberry juice.

Biggish pink head. Hazy pale red body. Strong raspberry concetrate aroma with yoghurty notes. Dry-acidic mealy milky raspberry taste with floral notes. Mid-to-thin body. Sharpish mouthfeel. Dry mealy grassy raspberry aftertaste. Nice, but a bit bland and sharp-edged. Served too cold, too. (0.33l bottle, The Old Brewery, Greenwich.)

Bottle. Copper colored body with a reddish hue, clear, and with a nice, dense, off-white head. The beer is on the malty side, with beefstock evident in the aroma, as well as raspberry. The artificial type of raspberry that is. The flavor has a berryish sourness which is quite nice, and the mouthfeel is medium full and creamy. A quite nice beer that might not deserve my rating which felt right at the moment of drinking it, but felt wrong just some minutes later. (071123)
