16 oz. can, pours jet black with a small light brown head. Aroma has plenty of raspberry, medium roast, and gently earthy coffee. Flavour is cohesive, with plenty of roast, gentle cocoa, and nicely integrated raspberry. Really good infusion of raspberries. Excellent.

Canned 10/10/24, shared by tfontana on 6/14/25. Thanks, Tom.
Clear, dark. Small, tan head.
Not sugary, though quite a bit of raspberry extract or concentrate. Some earthy, nutty, lightly chocolatey cacao, but low stout character otherwise. No booze.
Bitter raspberry, seedy and juicy, tasteful, with excellent dark chocolate. Light roast, rich malt and good attenuation. Yeah, this is the Speedway I know and love. No alcohol anywhere. Not sure what happened with the horchata, but we're back on track.

16 oz can shared by tfontana, thank you Tom. Aroma is big raspberry and mild coffee. Flavor must be a purée or from concentrate because it’s a lot of raspberry. Mild chocolate and coffee without a question. Some lingering coffee.

Can (10/10/24) from Whole Foods, Sherman Oaks. Opaque dark brown with ring of head, nice viscosity, no lacing. Aroma is earthy, roasted malt, chocolate, late light raspberry. Taste follows aroma with more pronounced raspberry, late coffee. Smooth texture, soft carbonation, no sign of alcohol, moderately bitter finish. More subdued than I'd expect. Coffee only present maybe in bitter finish.
10/10/24 thanks Tom aroma is chocolate, raspberry, light coffee. Taste follows, abv is hidden.
Chocolade en fruit, doet mij denken aan die ouderwetse kersenbonbons,deze combinatie is ok, alleen dan wel in snoep, minder als biercombi --- Beer merged from original tick of Raspberry Chocolate Speedway (2023) on 08 Nov 2024 at 17:46 - Score: 7. Original review text: Moah

Black with a medium sized foamy brown head. Roasty with anise, coffee, raspberry and a hint of smoke. Very long finish. Full body.

pours dark brown with a small brown head.
aroma is heavy on fresh raspberries and i can hardly make out any other kinds of aroma. The raspberries are good but where did the rest go?
flavor is raspberries, roasted malts, wood, coffee, Balance between raspberries and malts and coffe is really really good, it all combines very well to a tasty fruited stout, tastes like really top of the line dark chocolate with raspberry eaten with espresso.
