Straw colour. Lots of raspberry syrup on the nose. Watery, with vile syrupiness. Bad even for a mailed-in raspberry brew.

A weak yellow with an off-white, pink tinged head that is small and quickly fleeting. No lacing, rather filtered looking. Aroma smells of light hay, wheat dryness and light raspberry syrup, though not very sweet at all. Flavor begins with a rather insipid raspberry flavor, followed by too much wheat dryness and a sourish, strange, muddled yeast character. Lightly acidic, yet it has very little malt and in a general sense, very little of anything. Gets watery and tiresome very quickly. Body is light, mouthfeel is overcarbonated but watery on end. It’s examples like this that give the style a bad name.
