Bottle. Clear pale yellow gold. Decent mild fruity berry aroma. First taste impression is old style domestic dull berry lager fruit beer in the traditional american historical nature. Goes down real easy, it just that its rather dull, drab, dreary, subdued and unexciting except for the unsweetened berry in there. One good thing is there's no bitter or astringent hop bite in this, keeps it rather drinkable and almost refreshing. Goodly amount of co2 keeps your mind off the laid back attitude and makes it somewhat interesting. Stoic.

Golden with a large foamy white head. Sweet, tangy and a bit grainy with a faint berry note. Medium finish and body.

Pour is a clear gold with a large white head. Aroma is a raspberry Flintstone vitamin fruit. Flavor is some minor raspberry with a grainy malt mouthfeel. Ok for a fruit beer and a bit more alcohol then the usual fruit beer.

12 oz. bottle from Total Wine. Pours a cloudy gold color with a small off-white head and fair retention. Almost no lacing. Very light generic fruit aroma. Basic lager flavor with a weak raspberry finish. Crisp mouthfeel. Clean and smooth. Not bitter. Nothing bad here, just a basic beer with a hint of fruit. It's better than their Purple Haze or Andygator, barely, and that's setting the bar kinda low.

12 ounce bottle from Niemuth’s, 8/6/22. Hazy amber, medium white head, good retention. Aroma of raspberry, toasted malt. Taste is berry, toast, caramel. Thin. Meh.

Who'd have thought the marriage of two not-that-great beers would result in a not-that-great beer? Mild notes of raspberry, wood shavings, and a little bread rub up against a fizzy texture and a weak, barely-there finish. Maybe it's better on tap?
